This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

The hyphen helps people remember partial plates, and you can look up a vehicle fairly easily with a partial plate, color, make, and/or model

T28-5U47 vs T285U47Y

Chances are you'll remember T28 or 5U47 more than T285U47Y.
