Need to make sure that baby lasts until they abandon this ugly design, probably about the time we get a governor who can actually see it. There better be some white/blue plates left when I come back in June. I wonder how many tickets someone can get for painting their license plate. Hmmm… ---

Shit, I better register my Jetta asap. The worst part is I have to take it off the road every winter, so I basically HAVE to get custom plates so I don’t get the piss plates next year. Another fee, wonder if they figured on people doing that? Go NY:mad: ---

FML, I wonder if the smaller DMVs still have them. It looks like the personalized plates are all the yellow ones now too. I didn’t go through the trouble of ditching the amber lights on my car to put an ugly yellow plate on it. I may be buying custom blue plates with a bird or Niagara Falls on them LOL! ---

> [@JayS](#): > > Yeah, this isn’t an April Fools joke. They canceled the RE-ISSUE where you were going to have to pay for new plates even if your current plates were 100% fine and nothing was changing. That plan died. You can renew your registration and keep your current white/blue plate. However, if you register a new car and need new plates you will only be able to get the white/blue plate while supplies last. They aren’t making any new one and the hideous gold/blue plate is what we’re stuck with. > > It’s actually quite fitting that NY went with a retro design. Every policy in NY is stuck in the 50’s so why shouldn’t our license plates reflect that. hahahah this is so funny but so sad at the same time. cuz it really is true ---

Bump. Anyone get plates lately? I gotta register my car tomorrow and was wondering who has got blue plates recently and where, so I can do the least amount of calling around to local DMVs. I really slacked on this, so I’m willing to travel to get them, LOL.
