    Auto related: In Dayton, Ohio, the first electric automobile starter was invented and available on a Cadillac. It was invented by Charles Kettering, whom a Dayton suburb is named for. Dayton is also home of the Wright Brothers and is the birthplace of Aviation. The cash register also came from Dayton. Countless inventions and industry came from Dayton. The modern popcan pull tab is another. Dayton, Ohio is a wonderful place.

Hahaha. A vehicle ID number is understandable but they really don’t need a plate for that either.

    My wife got me the Back to the Future plate 9 years ago, and being from Pennsylvania driving a New Jersey original 99 Tahoe, I didn't have a plate for the front. I couldn't believe how high of quality the plate is. The quality and detail, right down to the registration stickers that you have to apply yourself, is exceptional. So much so, that when we went to Disney a few months later, someone thought I was from California until the person they were with pointed out that it was from Back to the Future. 9 years later, it still looks as good as the day I put it on. If or when I retire that Tahoe, I will swap it out for the 2015 Back to the Future plate.

He said “Celebrity Machines” and I thought that sounded familiar, so I checked my recent purchases on Amazon, sure enough, one of his plates! Fantastic quality and accuracy, people absolutely love seeing it on the car, I’m really not looking forward to having to remove it when my new plate comes in, I might just end up buying a plate flipper so I can switch back and forth for meets and shows.

You would think the Governors and the appointed heads of their DMVs would have more pride in their state as their license plate is shown everywhere a state registered car drives. I also have to agree with Travis about Indiana plates and I have been telling my friends about that for years. They are and have always been so ugly.

    Is it legal to put these on your car? If so how can you get it cleared with the dmv
