(Mach) SCHNELL

1. Sounds terrible and I don’t get it.

2. That’s not an option.

YEAGER?

Why not "NO LIFT" since that is the actual term for the shifting? I mean, you will lift eventually........

I’m paying homage to the Mustangers leaving Cars and Coffee events staying in the throttle no matter what who eventually crash into crowds on the side of the road.

Yeah OP how dare you trick out your Mach?
Guess it's just a devalued EcoBoost now.
Only worth $20k.

This guy is giving me a good laugh.
I don't know why he's picking on you OP but your car looks great and I seriously doubt it lost $25k in value from what you've done.

@greasy I think if you take your time and search a bit more, you'll find some even better ones

@RacerMach1 These are not the kind of helpful, "community" responses I am used to seeing. You can probably do better too.

So...I'd maybe pause, end the thread and re-consider your choices.

"voodo". I understand what you're attempting, but no one knows what the word is referencing, except us. While puns can be fun, confusing plates can be annoying. Further, "voodo" can come off as "voodoh".

"trck ready can be interpreted as "truck ready". The proper abbreviation for "track" is "trk".

"never lift" or "never left". Addition meanings lead to confusion or mis-understanding. Again, we don't know how either ties into the car.

The thread was a net positive. If you'd picked any one of the three, you'd be explaining it to others constantly. You shouldn't have to.

If you do re-consider, I'd select something that is not in-your-face, does not have to do with speed or racing. While plates with those topics can be cool, they can also be a taunt to others, including LEOs.

For inspiration, I'd start over, studying yacht or horse names.

YMMV.

OP I could also suggest you do what I did and have your wife come up with your plate for you.

I told her I always wanted a custom plate, but I wasn't very creative, and she put in NOT CRTV and I was sold. Still feel good with it 5 years later. Been fun having people pull up next to me guessing, too.

So maybe ask someone other than RacerMach1 is what I'm saying.

I hear you on the misinterpretations but I like having a little comedy in the mix. I want it to resonate with the car community and I don’t mind having to explain it. I had LTTR BOX on my Hellcat and everyone got a kick out of it!

To be fair she wouldn’t know where to start lol

I'm having the same struggle with a plate... want to change it up but haven't been able to come up with anything that's a slam dunk.

Was thinking 69TO21, 1969 first model year they were available.

Illinois is weird with the numbers and letters. You are not able to have numbers and then letters or vice versa. Has to be letters then numbers following with a space in between.

I think you are going to be the only one that understands that...

Now this one is good!! More obvious.

It’s a joke a bunch of us from the car community know the meaning of, but kind of a moot point as I’ll be going with NO VOODO
