Are you sure it’s a vanity plate, and not regular issue (random letters and numbers)? Maybe he flies a 747, and this is her consolation prize?

I remember my mom’s old Nissan Sentra had a bumper sticker on it that read “When I grow up, I want to be a limo”

In Iowa we’re not allowed to choose a vanity plate with the same letter/spacing scheme as a regular issue plate.

It’s a genuine, personalized, license plate…regular license plate price, plus $25 for a choice of letters/numbers.

Reminds me of the Iowa plate I saw once something like 175 COW. I would have asked forcefully for another selection.
