I have always wanted a personalized license plate ever since I was a child. I begged my parents to get one when I was a kid. That didn’t work. So this year I decided to take the plunge. It was a lot less expensive than I would have thought and I basically got it for myself for Father’s Day, with my daughters’ approval, of course (they were pretty excited). Now I can check that item off of my to-do list.
For those who don’t get it, I will break it down for you.
- I wanted it to say “TECHDAD” but that was taken (but it actually worked to my advantage – see below)
- I changed the “E” to a “3” for a couple of reasons:
- l33t – or leetspeak. The techies out there will appreciate that one.
- I have 3 daughters
The rest is history (grin).

HTD says: if you see my old green Honda Accord with it’s peeling paint with that lisence plate, honk and give me a wave!

That is so awesome! I never got around to getting my plate customized, but I think that's gonna have to be upgraded from my Someday/Maybe list :)

Thanks! Yeah, I'm not sure who was more excited, me or my girls. They kept bugging me about it and when it would arrive. Now they just love it!

Nice! Personalized plates are a little more spendy than I'd like here in Minnesota, so for now I'm stuck with the regular old state-issued design. But if I ever decide to go the personalized route, your break down provides plenty of inspiration.
