Which personalized license plate would you choose?

A-BAMF · 02-03-2014, 01:55 PM

I am purchasing a personalized plate, I have narrowed it down to these two:

1) Don't Tread On Me

2) National Air & Space Museum (SR-71)

And some pics of the car:

What rims are those? I want them baaaad...

Do the space one... It may be because I'm Canadian, but the other one seems so hillbilly.

A-BAMF · 02-03-2014, 01:58 PM

"BMW E90" is not available and just for reference. I will be using something similar.

My wheels are ADR M-Classics (ADR-42), size 18x8.5

National Air & Space cause it has the SR-71 on it...best plane ever!

Anon007 · 02-03-2014, 02:08 PM

I like the air and space, but BMW E90 is kind of boring

PINeely · 02-03-2014, 02:14 PM

Air&Space, the yellow DTOM won't look too great on a maroon car IMO especially with blue lettering. I see that your brakes are yellow too but that's a little more subtle.

Depends.... if you've ever served in the military I'd say the Don't Tread On Me...... if you have never served. The Air and Space plate then.....

....and for the Canadian calling the Don't Tread On Me plate "hillbilly" well.... when's the last time your country ever won a war?

spencers · 02-03-2014, 02:22 PM

I dig the SR71 plate

WWII.

When was the last time you guys won anything? Withdrawing doesn't count in the slightest as a win.

By the way, look up JTF2, we can be nasty if need be.

Same one that we did, lol. They fought alongside us and the other allies in WWII.

And don't fuck with the Mounties either. International jurisdiction and a fleet of armed hovercraft that can go basically anywhere.

Iraq, Libya: 2011

Iraq is slowly turning back into its former self; as someone who has served (US Army Sapper), I can tell you the international community sees a withdrawal as a loss.

1. Canadians were involved in both conflicts.
2. We didn't win Iraq. There's still people hiding in caves and blowing shit up. We gave up and left.
3. We didn't win Libya (but our aid allowed the rebels to)

I am active Navy, 14 years.

SR-71 is in the lead.

MattMD · 02-03-2014, 02:43 PM

For all intents and purposes the US won the Iraq War. Canada was not involved, but was in the Libyan Civil War.

I don't think it's our problem that Iraq still has insurgency. We got Saddam on trial and brought democratic elections. Mission accomplished? They're just totally incompetent over there and I honestly couldn't care less. I don't agree with going over there in the first place tbh. Hate the politics but I do admire & respect all who serve.

If you want to get "technical", the question stemmed from "when was the last time your country won a war". Technically Iraq wasn't a war, it is an occupation / armed conflict. So the US didn't win a "War", per-say.

Actually Canada was involved. It was kind of a big deal since they had said that they weren't going to go in at first.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_...an_involvement

As for insurgency problems, I agree, that's not our issue really. But after we got Saddam we piddled around there for a few more years for the reason of trying to stop it, which we could not do.

EDIT: I too have the utmost respect for those serving.

I'd leisure to say a lot more then along side... Thanks to being commonwealth we were involved for a wile before you folk. But you guys had Japan, so I guess that evens it out?

Good chance that the petrol thats powering most of your guys Bimmers came from my Province too!

Every man and his dog was involved in the farce that was the Iraq invasion, including little old New Zealand.
