I had that plate in Texas from 1998-2003. Seems like others had it too in five or six different states.
Cost of the plate back then was $40 extra. After that,Texas contracted it out to a private firm and they raised the rates to the moon. Most of the people that had custom plates when that happened,let them go back to the state.

[scottfab]

I had "USA ZR1" in Oregon for 5 years then applied for and received
"USA ZR1" here in Washington 12yrs ago.
Here is the final version of pics I've taken of all plates I've seen. Some of my favorites are: "KEY ON", "ZROOOM", "ZEE WHIZ" and of
course the "USA ZR1" ones (three of them)

[Gunny]

.... Cost of the plate back then was $40 extra ....

I had a '70 Volvo with TX personalized tags and I think I paid either $20 or $25 extra at that time. Even that cost was "almost" unaffordable as my wife & I were both in grad school with two little rug rats to feed. Moved to Tennessee in '75 and gave up the tag (I think it's in a box somewhere in the garage now).

States that have a realistic pricing structure for their specialty tags can generate a LOT of extra revenue; but when the prices go over the top, I'm guessing the revenue goes WAY down ... so typical of decisions by our government bureaucracy.

[USAZR1]

Seeing all those custom plates sure brings back a lot of memories,Scott. I remember most of them and who owned those ZR-1's. Thanks for posting that.

Well, if you go through "myplates", the private contractor, that is true. And you'll pay more if you want 6 characters instead of 5, or even 7 characters.

However, you still have the option of getting some plates directly from the State, at prices that are lower than the private contractor, and the proceeds will benefit something other than a fat-cat's pockets.

For instance, my plates are "State of the Arts", which cost $70 (tag fee and personalization). According to the State's description: "From the $30 specialty plate fee, $22 goes to the Texas Commission on the Arts to foster the development of a receptive climate for the arts that will culturally enrich and benefit Texas citizens." So... music and dance and sculpture and stuff. Which I can totally get behind. And it's an attractive design, as well.

You can also get them to benefit other state organizations like Parks & Wildlife (rattlesnake), Keep Texas Beautiful (don't mess with Texas logo) and so on.

Of course, that's on top of the regular registration fee, so it DOES get pricey, no doubt. But I feel better sending my funds this way than going through the commercial contractor. I get the plates I want, plus I get to do something philanthropic.

FWIW: I registered "WEB SYT" a few years ago for one of my daily drivers before there was a commercial / private contractor. I'm grandfathered on that plate and still retain it today. When I went for "TCP IP" after that, I was unable to get the "plain" personalized plate directly through the state and opted to go State of the Arts with it. (Yes, I run a hosting provider).

What a crazy time I have had getting a personalized plate here in Pa. When I lived in Md. my plate was ZWILD1. So when I bought my 91 Z a few months back I decided to go with the Pa. antique tags. Initially they said I had five numbers / letters. So I was going to use ZWILD as a nod to my Md. plate. Then they inform me that I have only four letters/ numbers available. You sure can't do much with just four. Of course 91ZR is not available. I don't like my current plate which is 73c6 . I laughed when I saw it cause I said no a 73 is a C3. Anyway I'm waiting for my plate which will read ZR91. The guy I bought my car from lived in Minnesota and I really loved his plate. Personally I think the Pa. plates are ugly.

My plate read ZR1 until I moved to Pennsylvania. I then went for antique plates but was told it might take 6-8 weeks for the antiques. Since it was late Spring, prime drive time, I wouldn't be able to drive it until the new plates arrived by mid summer. I opted to buy standard PA plates and apply for the antique ones. This totaled about $250. This was on a Thursday. The following Monday, four days later, my antique plates arrived. 0035. Jim
