My bro saw it and was like "thats tight" I dont think so..
FKV=?
if thats what i think it is, I dont know.. I think I would like that one..J/p.. They are both bad though.
and I know it isn't cool for a male or female to have it.. could be worse.. like this

of course, prices might vary from state to state....but you should have that option.

when i'm at the DMV getting new plates, i make it a habit to ask if
they can eyeball what's coming up next...or near the top of the
heap. sometimes i'll get a sympathetic person (i try my 'how yoo
doin?' smile) or see if I can slip them $10 or so for a reasonably
decent plate. if not, i'll go personalized plates. it's kinda like
getting a new phone number, i may ask them to try some combos
which can spell something out or other.

The state random numbering system is an ever-evolving one.
Way back when Washington first came out with the new design (having the Mtn on the plate) the licenses issued in Ellensburg shocked the town. They were from the series "ADS" with 3 numbers leading ....
Well, the folks in the community raised a stink! They didn't want their car to advertise AIDS. So, it was made optional to use that series or move on to the next one.
People. What can I say?

I agree, it really depends on how you ask and who your clerk is. I have had some that have said, take it or leave it and I have actually had one digging around for 10 mins trying to find a really good number. I got all Ss and 8s one time...lucky Chinese #...not sure if it worked though...
That would be so messed up if they say "take it or leave it" With my luck I am sure I will run into one of those. But if they do I can always go to 4 different dmvs around my area I got 3 near by. Maybe I can run into at least one nice person.
Can they really tell you what the next random one looks like?
Watch me turn in FVK and get SHT next..

at least you'll have 1000 other people with the same FVK or SHT as you.

Are you in California? If you are, then the plates at the DMV are most likely in the F sequence still...I've never gone to the DMV to get a license plate, but they should let you have some sort of preference on what you want. Then again, the DMV IS a government run agency My plates are EWV, I just missed EWW, haha, and Im glad. (ewww). My neighbor has FKN on her Suburban, go ahead and figure out that one.
