I hate that SOB. Letters/numbers crammed together, thinner font, no relief of numbers from background. I take it the state doesn't want you to be able read it from a distance to report crime. Surely Dandy is behind it. At least they could have put the KY shape outline in the middle. But no.

Fortunately, when I registered my replacement car Monday & got a new plate, I complained about it - loud enough so that everyone in the county clerk's office could hear - of course. Turns out they had a few of the old metal ones with the letters & numbers spaced apart still left, so I got one of those. I'm now happy for me. But the new ones still sux.

Got my new truck plate yesterday and I actually like it. Plain white with blue numbers and just 10,000 instead of a county. Ain't nobody's business where I'm from.

The flat font was supposed to cost the state a lot less than the raised font. A lot of states have already switched over. They would be better if they were the old design with the flat font.

I think I heard the main benefit is the new ones can be printed in the Clerk’s office.

Don't laugh about license plates. There is a huge market for antique ones on ebay. I saved all of my license plates in the garage for about 50 years. I am selling them for as high $100 or more. I recently sold a UK special plate for $65.00. Plus shipping.

The market is nationwide and very lucrative. For example. You can have this one for as little as $39,95 plus Priority shipping of $9.95.
