Don't remember having a sticker or plate on my car when i was on active duty or in the reserves and used to give a few friends crap about their stickers but the one advantage of being an old fart is that it's okay to have a nice Colorado SF plate on my vehicle - they did an excellent job in designing them. That said i was pulled over sunday night for doing 80 mph in a 55 zone and now have a court date so maybe another QP visited the officer's wife one night and now he hates all SF as I swear i wasnt going that fast!!
