DMV denied my vanity plates

'13 BOSS'.

Someone help me, what the @#$%^ is wrong with '13 BOSS' on my 2013 BOSS?

The DMV just sent me a letter denying me these plates.

I'm so mad I could punch through a brick wall right now....

Maybe the 13?

I came up with one earlier today, but I already have a plate

Jailbait 302, because it a young one.

I can see how '13' might be seen as some gang reference but... I explained it's a 2013 Boss. Nobody would interpret this plate as a gang thing on THIS particular car, would they? Would have looked SO nice next to Fatboss' '12 BOSS'...

Everyone's entitled to my opinion. ;)

It's a MS13 thing. Could get you shot in a drive by living in CA.

Hmmm... hadn't thought of that. Chances are I'll end up in LA with my car sometimes so maybe it's for the better. Too bad we live in such a @#$@#% up world...

Yesterday I went and got my plate and I was able to secure "13 BOSS"!!! But I am in Florida... I'm really shocked it was not already taken. Now I just have to wait six weeks to get it in

Well... I 'secured' it too about 6 weeks ago but still got a letter from the DMV telling me I wasn't going to get '13 BOSS' and they're going to refund the money I paid.

I guess you get ready for the same to happen to you...
 
I'm pretty sure I should be fine here in Florida. I have gotten several personalized plates and the only one they denied me was"kick ass" which I still want but to get it I have to have a company with that name. So there is a kick ass developments company in my future lol

in mass the plate can't start with a number. maybe you have some stupid rules like we do.

When I was in highschool I had RACE ME they never thought twice about that one.
 
The last time Cali checked RCWALP was still available. ;)

Sorry to hear you're not getting my alter ego's plate... :(

I truly think it's a judgement call on whoever is working the personalized plates at that moment. For example plenty of reviewers would never have let me have the one on my truck: FAT DESL I'm sure I'm violating the civil rights of "big boned" people all over the state! ;D

You missed a great day running with Team Shelby today Marco. I drove home the long way with the owner of a RR/W '12. Oliver and I took HWY 9 to Black Rd on the way back and I'm very glad he knows that road. Its a 2nd gear road with very steep downhills and lots of switchbacks. Incredible driving!
 
Used to run 9 to the coast a lot, haven't taken the Boss yet as she is a bit big boned. Also sort of a crap shoot whether you get stuck behind a prius with nowhere to pass for an hour :mad:

In VT, we can't have more than 2 numbers in a vanity plate and the letter O counts as a number (zero), so 13 BOSS would be denied also. Don't understand the reasoning.
