A few years ago our ever-on-guard state DMV took me to task for requesting 
2 OLD 2     for a plate for my 180 LM rig; after I, in complete objectivity 
explained that the reference was to the antique vehicle barely able to get 
up down Iowa's scenic rolling hills ... they reluctantly issued the plates, 
but only after reminding me that driving is a priviledge, etc. etc.   Gee I 
feel lucky I didn't get 5 to 10 digging potatos for the state ...
