Because it was the color of a taxi, or because chicks thought it was a cabriolet?

Color of a taxi, I'm guessing.

I was behind another Model S on the way in to work this morning -- it had the following plate:

BATTCAR

The Model S was white -- would have worked better on a black car...

And I also saw an S on the way in to work yesterday too (a blue one)...

I'm going to take the Tesla in to get registered on Friday.

I'm going to get a personalized plate -- but now debating between a couple ideas. The one I hinted at above is still avail (which I'm amazed since Tesla owners in CA, NV and VA already have it). But I had another idea this morning -- and it has a double meaning so might be even better. Here's the ideas:

KWH2MPH -- which is the one already taken in multiple states. Really good for an electric car...

THINKON -- this is the new idea. I'm of Scottish descent, and its the motto for my clan -- so has personal meaning. It also would work really well on an electric car!

Any thoughts or votes?

Wow, you get 7 characters?

KWH2MPH is good, but kind of on the nose.

UNPLUGD and REVOLT are probably already taken.

EDSNSUKS?

And I'm still partial to COALPWR

EDIT: And someone really needs to make a "Menlo Park Camry" bumper-sticker, just because.

Yep... 7 characters. Here's the link to the AZ MVD site where you can check availability: https://servicearizona.com/webapp/ve...hoiceSearch.do

UNPLUGD and REVOLT are taken. REVOLTD is avail though -- but not for me...

EDSNSUKS would be a bad idea considering my employer (Edison founded it...). Its also 8 charachters...

COALPWR is avail. But that would draw the ire of other EV owners
