It was a revenue generator for the state plus it was fun and exciting to do. All the good names came out and that made others request their cute little titles too. Of course, in those days, it all had to be done via mail and you would have to snail mail back and forth to find out if your name was accepted

EVERYONE I WANTED WAS TAKEN

If and when you received confirmation, you couldn't wait for it to come in the mail. Now I was a johnny come lately on this and all ideas that I had that would please me and my business were being taken before I could even think about it. So, I had to come up with something that I knew I could get and be pleased as well...

5 NAGS GO

I had a big suburban and a family of five. My last name is NAGGAR so it all made sense especially since we were doing lots of vacationing at the time. Now if you passed anyone with acute license plate, they would honk, comment or even give you a thumbs up. Took me a while to connect all that to my license plate BTW...

YOU GOT ALL GIRLS EH?

Now my plate got laughs. One guy came up to me at a gas station and said: Oh boy, you got all girls huh? It was a good joke and as long as he kept his voice down, no one would be sleeping on the couch. I laughed and we parted...

YOU OWN A RANCH EH?

Another fellow came up to me and started dialoging about horses. I thought it odd until I connect NAG on the license plate to his conversation. So, your in the horse business eh?. Yea, I used to have ranch and on and on...

WE TRAVELED A LOT

Me, I liked the idea of my family adventuring, traveling, vacationing going places together and having lots of fun times together. Five NAGGARS GO...AND THEY DID everywhere....

Did you have a personal license plate?

I don't, but I do like trying to figure out the meaning of other people's personal plates :)

Here in Washington State they change plates and plate #s every few years. If you just want to keep your old number, they will let you do that, for a price. What a racket.

That's a cute license.  I had a friend who broke her hip.  Her kids bought her one "1hipmom".  I had one that said "DONASK" and once I was driving down the freeway next to a car that said "ASKME".....
