very cool plate!.. is that an albino bear?

"The Kermode bear (Ursus americanus kermodei), also known as the "spirit bear" (particularly in British Columbia), is a rare subspecies of the American black ..." Revenue from the purchase of these plates also goes to our parks and wildlife! I am 100% with you on supporting the outdoors!

Some people pay more it goes up or down depending on the age of your vehicle and the type also.

 

It's crap...I believe it's something like 56$ yearly just to register as a car as inactive

I'm seeing those plates around here more often lately and they definitely make a vehicle stand out however I go back to when they were standard issues so they look out of place to me on vehicles not from that era.

 

In any caae thats a sharp looking truck you have there!

I have New England Patriots Super Bowl plates on my truck, unfortunately it only represents 3...not sure if Ma has a current version or if they are waiting for after next season so they can have all 6, 3 on the left and 3 of the right to balance it.

Those would sure look good on a classic car or truck......... Or if you tow classics.......

 

If you like it go for it - but the general public could not care less about all these special plates - I get a kick out of deciphering them - and we certainly have had a few - but it's not for anything more than getting a plate you can remember.........

 

Washington state doesn't even emboss raise the letters anymore - so they look cheap too.........

I tried ordering personalized ones , but it took 8weeks to tell me no.

 

I might just get random ones in the black and yellow. I have a summit white with black trim.

Yeah it's more for pickup trucks because we get classified as "Commercial Vehicles" in CA. When I sold my Sierra and bought a Tahoe from my mom for a couple years, I was shocked that her yearly registration was so much lower even though the cars were the same year and hers had a $12k higher MSRP originally.

Thanks bro! I get compliments when I park at places, I appreciate it too. Helps reassure I made a good choice pulse it represents what helped me pay for the truck! #OilAndGas #Industry

Very nice plate! I recently purchased BC parks plates! I like unique licence plates and I don't think it matters if the colors conflict with a vehicles' color scheme!

 

 

Nice. I didn't even know these existed in BC!

      Tire pressure for 37s

      By PBNB · Posted

      Do you think this width might affect the chalk test with a higher pressure closer to 65psi? I think lowering the pressure makes sense to get the tread to lay flatter

      My First Project and GMC has me stumped

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      I had an alternator fail that was shorted internally in such a direct fashion in addition to the larger gauge cables that it appeared like a VERY dead battery. Granted I think the car did power up, it definitely wouldn't start.   Rodent damage to wiring?

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By asilverblazer · Posted

      Using experience to justify bad advice is lazy and typical of someone incapable of articulating why their advice is prudent.    This immediately sets off the BS alert and the advice that followed certainly qualified.   Asking an idiot for help getting out of dumb situations because he is an expert... at getting himself into dumb situations.   Unless I've been living in an alternate universe - the first thing everyone does when getting into a sticky situation is shift to a higher gear 🤨.   Of course not, the torque multiplication, mechanical advantage and finer control typically afforded by the lower gear is far better suited for this scenario.   There ARE scenarios where a higher gear MIGHT be appropriate determined more by the drivers ability to control EXCESSIVE wheel spin versus applying torque to the ground.

      Towing In Loose Gravel

      By Atlas · Posted

      I'm not sure I agree with "extreme" low speed, high torque sentiment here with regards to the prescribed use of low range. How about...whenever it's needed?   A 2.72:1 transfer case and whatever differential gears these Silverados have (3.42's, maybe?) aren't producing "extremely" low crawl speeds. Or insanely high torque multiplication. Even with the 1st gear in these newer transmissions. But it does provide mechanical advantage and potentially better control at slower speeds. And with extra weight or towing, I think it adds mechanical sympathy for the truck as well.   Plus, traction control and the other assists generally turn off when you shift into low range. Those aren't needed here, they'll work against you if you need wheel spin. In high range you'll need to figure out how to turn off the various modes those assists provide. Depending on the vehicle, those things don't all automatically turn off or turn completely off.   While I agree that a farmer might have some great practical experience, a recommendation to "always" using one gear isn't very informed advice. If the farmer had said WHY and could explain the physics behind his prescriptive "always" I'd definitely listen. The way he's described here makes it sounds like he could either be uninformed or is telling everyone what worked for him, not necessarily that there could be a more advantageous way about things.
