Need help choosing Personalized License Plates for the Bolt EV

Ok, I'm sure this comes up on every EV forum but I think I'm the first here; I'd like to pick up a set of personalized plates for my Bolt but I need some help deciding what to apply for. The way it works in BC is you submit a list of slogans that you'd like to have, and you get the first one that's available (not used by someone else). I've already made an attempt for every variation of "LOL GAS" and "GAS LOL" that I could think of, but all are spoken for. Now it's time for round 2 and I need help choosing. Just FYI, in BC we can have 6 alpha numeric chars and spaces, up to a max of 7 (6chars and a space).

Here's my list of ideas, some I've poached from the Tesla forums, some I came up with myself. They're sort of in order with my favs on the top.

LOL ICE
GAS WUT
WUT GAS
0 LPKM (I'm Canadian eh?!)
AMPED
AMPD UP
AMPT UP
SO AMPD
SO AMPT
ROFL IC
KIKGAS (kinda childish, not sure I would do it on my car)

Favorites? Other suggestions? Feedback is appreciated!

CHARGIT

Then put it inside a frame that says:
I don't shop
where I can't charge

I got that from another forum ten or fifteen years ago.

Good ideas! But I think a lot of these will already be taken by Volt owners... How about something specific to the Bolt EV:

BOLT EV
FUN EV
60KWH
EV238MI

I like that, but it's over my char limit. Would have to go CHRG IT. Can you get custom printed license plate frames, or does someone actually sell a frame with that written on it?

"LOL ICE" might get you targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.

Hmm, good point.... I have NEXUS, but I don't need a cavity search because of my plates every time I drive into the US (which is often)...

Hmm, I might be thick but I'm not getting exactly what you're trying to spell out...

I like the idea of something specific to the Bolt... I thought of Bolt EV (and could probably get it, there's only a few in the province right now), but I thought it a little unimaginative... I had this idea though, it might be more fun with a custom printed license plate from that said:

--------------
It's
--------------
BOLT EV
--------------
With a "B"
--------------

I'd be worried that the guy behind me would rear-end me while trying to figure out what it meant...

Ahh ok. I think seeing it all in caps helps. Clever, I like it

Why not keep it simple. I have "NO GAS" for a license plate.

Have used it for many years on many EVs!

Thanks for the suggestions everyone. I submitted my 2nd attempt Monday with a new list of 5. This is what went on my application:

SO WATT
L8R GAS
HIGH V (high voltage / high five)
AMPD UP
CHRG IT

Hopefully one of the top two will hit as those are my favorites. Runners up included:

LOL GAS (currently spoken for in BC)
GAS LOL (also currently spoken for in BC)
0 LPKM
DA FUTR (in a custom printed license plate frame says "Welcome to")
LOL ICE
AMPED
BOLT EV
0 EMISH
GAS WUT
WUT GAS
AMPT UP
ROLF IC
BYE GAS
KCK GAS
KIKGAS
KIK GAS
CHRG ME
SUCH EV (hehe, Dogge)
AMPD AF (pretty sure that would get screened out)
BATMBL (get it? Batmobile as in Batman, also as in Battery mobile)

Thanks again for everyone's feedback, it's a TOUGH decision and I appreciate all the input. Will post back the result in a few weeks.

That would be perfect here in Texas on this custome plate: https://e1ca9e7b378ed85738c0-8561c0e5244083a527482fa735bef602.ssl.cf1.rackcdn.com/auto.TXOGA.png
