Think they went with the worst choice so people would opt to pay extra for one of the nice ones.

You're probably right. I know for a fact it's exactly the mindset they'd have in Massachusetts and unfortunately RI likes to follow right behind these sort of mindsets

The Rocky Point plate looks terrific! The Gaspee Days Committee is taking preorders for a very nice looking plate as well. They’re still short of the 600 needed to get a production run started but are going to make a push in the spring to reach that goal. I’m hopeful that they make it, because my wave plate is on its last legs and I don’t want to get stuck with the saw blade.

I think I’m just going to keep my existing wave plate forever. In due time it will be unique on the road, kinda like seeing a green and white Massachusetts plate now.

Vehicle inspection will condemn it and you will have to immediately get confirmation of a replacement - -happened to me

How did you already fail an inspection for the new plate if we don’t even have the new plates yet?

If you want evidence of voter fraud, look at our new license plate. You know darn well nobody voted for the saw blade.

Yep. I even had hoped there’s make them a dark blue background with light lettering like the URI sign and Welcome to RI signs. Noooooope.

The designer Willem Van Lancker had some democratic political ties. Connections are how you get things done in RI.

Wait until it's "dirty" after a year and you get to buy new ones.

I wonder if people who get upset at people who voice their opinion on something realize that they could spend their time getting pissed about something that really matters.

Lol. OP isn’t wrong, but neither are you. I’m with you on this one.
