Here is a nice option for NC:

I'm sorry, but I'm tired of the NC plates, we need new ones with county names on them.

[Claws]

I don't like the county name system because when I go to Nashville, I feel like a redneck with the "Dickson" on my license plate.  I hate Dickson County.

Why do some NC and FL liscence tags have the county they from on them? I never understood that

[krazeeboi]

I've never seen NC plates with the county at the bottom of the plate. At any rate, check out post #21 in this thread for an answer to your question.

Hi, first time posting.  I am also sick and tired of NC's license plate, that's why I plunked down the extra $20 dollars and got the Blue Ridge Specialty tag.  You wouldnt believe how many people at my work have come forward to ask me where the heck I got this tag.  Everybody seems to like it, if only NC would go ahead and re-design the regular tag.

We're glad you decided to join us. Would I be wrong to assume you are from Gastonia?

Close, I'm actually from Lowell.  

[krazeeboi]

Well, since it's still Gaston County, the moniker fits.

[Spartan]

Well, its all right there together

My mom's from Stanley, imagine that?

[ironchapman]

Certainly not Georgia's old ones. Weare getting some improvements with the new ones.

South Carolina's has always been a favorite of mine.

[Florida]

Im usually partial to Florida, but I must give the most pleasing Tag title over to Mississippi. Their tag is quite pleasing to look at, until they drive their cars home down those dirt roads!! Sorry Mississippi... I couldn't resist.

[MeltingHotDogs]

Kentucky's are horrid, but I think they are changing in June, and will probably have the new motto "The Unbridled Spirit" on them.

I have always liked Mississippi's, they just look...classy.

All the rest are neither here nor there for me. I do have a question though, for someone from Florida. How come some plates say sunshine state and some list the county?

[Aessotariq]

^ Florida leaves the decision up to each county tax collector's office to decide that. Vehicle owners have the option of getting a county tag or they can request a Sunshine State tag.

As a tourist state, it's better not to show the county name. Miami-Dade County only issues Sunshine State tags, one big reason being to protect tourists that fly into Miami, rent cars and drive to other parts of the state, such as Orlando. Florida used to issue tags for rental cars that displayed the word "LEASE" on them, and this was a big mistake. Now a rental car cannot have anything on the outside of the vehicle that can identify it as a rental.

You can also see another part of my answer on Page 2 of this thread.

I think that every state should show the county on the license tag. I have always liked that.
