    Most custom plates around here say **** like "2gud4u" and other ******bag-worthy phrases..

    To be honest, I'd feel like ****** driving a well-known (lambo or ferrari for example, esp bright colors) around right now... Not like I did anything bad, but so many people (at least here) have it tough right now.

    So, obviously I'm not going to avoid getting a car I love just because other people didn't make their luck like I did.. BUT I love motivating/sharing with those around me and I'd like to do some of that in my license plate.... any ideas for custom plates that would make people feel like yeah i can ****ing make this work and be happy...?

    I like the simple concept that sports cars are suppose to be fun.
    Both for the driver and for people who spot them.

    Most people who have seen my plate give it a thumbs up.

    I think it would come off the wrong way. I would not think a plate will motivate many people. Work hard- I know lots of guys that work damn hard but will never own a Ferrari. Its just a fact that some people aren't cut out to make it big. If you want to motivate people thats fine I just wouldn't do it with your plate, because it will be taken the wrong way.

    V12 Fun sounds normal and fun personalized tag.

    HRD WRK = sounds like your telling every one behind you and at that parking lot that you work harder than them.

    Not trying to rain on your parade, your thoughts were good but you are assuming people want you to motivate them. I'm trying to save you the trouble of them telling them they don't give a crap about you and your fancy car in their own terms i.e. Keying the heck out of it.

    It is too bad "Opportunity" has so many syllables, CZOPRTUNT (Sieze Opportunity) doesn't quite fit.

    It is too bad a econo-Ford has the name, otherwise perhaps a really good one would be:
    FOCUSD

    I love the ideas, guys, thanks a lot! I agree about plates like "HRDWRK" not being really motivational though, since there's the mentality out there that "I work harder in a day than that rich guy did his whole life" which obviously is untrue, but try telling that to the guy who has been welding parts all day, yea.

    I like things more along the lines of V12 Fun...Also one of my themes in my marketing teachings is "rich by love" which i really believe in and live by... I don't wanna put the word rich in there, but my three things I like to tell people are:

    Dream big
    love everyone
    pursue happiness

    cause that's how i live and I'm really happy!

    I wonder about...

    LUV ALL
    YSWECAN (wish there wasn't a huge political association)

    Don't remember where i heard this but I always thought "UGT2BLV" (you got to believe) was a really good one as long as it wasn't understood as being religious.
