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!

Purely wordplay:

THUNDER (with varieties of T4UNDER or THUND3R)
BOLTNUT
NUTBOLT
or simply NUT
SCREW/SKRU, or NOSCREW

Not going to change mine, though. There is enough vanity in the world already

How about "NUT AND"

I went with:

GAS YART

on a CA Black/Yellow retro plate. Should look good on Orange Burst w/Black Bow Ties

I was seriously considering some variation of “electrons”, though.

Great ideas in this thread!! Hats off to the OP for starting it!!

LIGHTNG was the third-choice for mine, but I've actually gone a little away from the usual EV choices (my old car was RAV4-EV) and applied for "FLOOF E" for Oregon, which is a play on "Floofy", a term that's often used to described mascots and fursuit performers. Since Art3mis (my Bolt EV) will be getting me to a lot of charity events, I'm going with that option, along with the following decal showing two of my main characters...

Mine is the second Bolt EV registered in the State of WV and many options are still open. Considering "BLUEBOLT", "BOLT EV", and, since I am a retired surgeon (turned University Professor), "EV 4A MD" & "BOLT4AMD".

Oregon suggestion

I'm surprised no one suggested USAIN (BOLT) yet

You all are so lucky in WV; in VA, you can't do more than 7 characters.

I noticed some DMV's are getting smarter and picking up on what some of these plates mean and even have the power to request a plate to be pulled.

Yeah, I have KIXGAS2 on my electric motorcycle, but had to write an appeal to get it through the California censors.

I made a bumper sticker for my electric bicycle: OIL IS FOR SISSIES

So long as there isn't any profanity in there, the custom plates will go through. But the censored ones are the funny ones. :crying:

Wanted something catchy and not offensive. Now leaning toward the "green" emphasis ("ITSGREEN", "IBGREEN", "EZ2BGREN") rather than personal info ("MD") or the "BLUE" color. The fact that it is a BOLT (although "BOLTNUT" or "NUTSBOLT" are cute) and is BLUE are obvious and probably don't bear repeating. Does "AMPED UP" imply drug usage? I kinda like "WATTS UP". What about "NOCO24ME"? Since I live in WV and most electricity is produced by coal, how about "COALPRWD"?

This is a fun side of the Forum, but I get lots of smiles from your comments.

The Bolt EV on the back left and two front fenders is enough of a EV message for me.

Of the 20 or so suggestions I received, I am leaning toward LCTRCBLU (8 character limit in WV). Our plates have blue lettering, very similar in shade to Kinetic Blue. I'll decide tonight & order online tomorrow. I'll try to post a pix when received/installed.

I am thinking about "V eq I R" or "ohmslaw"
