King Of Pop, Michael Jackson remembered through vanity license plate

Demarco DeLeon

MJ Fan Demarco DeLeon isn’t alone remember and reflecting the life of global super mega star Michael Jackson. It was one year today in which MJ nearly broke the internet and shut down twitter with the news of the hospitalization and later the announment of the death of Michael Jackson.

We watched him grow up. He grew up with us and our children. RIP Michael Jackson.

Where were you when Michael died? What’s your favorite MJ song?

I can’t help it- Michael Jackson

Aston Martin DB 9=HRD LIFE

Call me Mr. Hiatus.  Yes, I know.  I’ve been M.I.A., incognito and all the above.  There was a vehicle sent in recently dope enough to motivate me to get off my lazy a$$ and show the world.

Living in the Phoenix/Scottsdale area for the last three years I have became very numb to exotic and luxury cars.  Lambos are as common as std’s in high schools and Mercedes are like tramp stamps, all the women have one.  Range Rovers seem to be as common as forclosures and a Lexus is the new PhotobucketCadillac for retirement.

One car that still turns my head ANYTIME it purrs past me  is the Aston Martin DB 9.  There is something about it that gets me everytime.  When I see one drive by me I get this look on my face as if I just smelled the worst fart from a homeles man coming down from a 3 day crack binge and my only reply is “uuugggghhhh.”  Trust me folks.  It sounds wierd but that is a good response.  It’s kinda like when nasty is good, and when something is cold, its nice.  You get the point.

Thanks to the reader who sent in the pics of this vomicious vehicle.  As I stated before, this car is so sick it will wake you vomit.  Must be nice, must be the HRD HRD LIFELIFE. The vanity license plate speaks for itself.

If I ever get around to updating the WHIP OF THE MONTH section, this guy will be there for sure.  Enjoy.

Hummer H2 license plate MPG MIA

It’s no secret that the Hummer H2 Tank SUV is not the most eco friendly when it comes to gas comsumption.  In fact, from my research Hummer does not have to particpate in publishing EPA ratings to show consumers the average MPG this vehicle gets.  I read several reports of the Hummer averaging anywhere from 7 MPG to 13 MPG.  I have a feeling the guy who got 13mpg was driving down hill with the wind going in his direction and the A/C turned off!  I happen to love Hummers and secretly, I’ve always wanted to own this big, powerful get outta my way or I will drive over you machine.  I think deep down every man wishes he could own one of these at some time in his life. 

Just one problem, the fact that the MPG is MIA!

I did the math.  The H2 has a 32 gallon tank (sheesh!) and in Phoenix, AZ premium gas is selling for about $3.50 per gallon totalling $112 per fill up.  I conservatively used 10 MPG to figure out how many miles a driver would get on one tank and that numbers comes to 320 miles.  Thats the exact same mileage I get in a tank with my Nissan 350z and my Pathfinder.  One difference, I spend less that $60 to fill up those vehicles!

Hummer drivers, I don’t know how you guys do it.  That is one expensive tank.  I guess like the saying goes, you’ve got to pay to play.  I do have one question.  Are there any liberal democrats that own a Hummer?  I think I know the answer to that but someone prove me wrong.

The vanity license plate on this Hummer H2 was submitted to us by a member of hummerforums.com.

Platenuts.com reader, Jake, submitted his vanity license plate a looooooooooooooong time ago.  As I confessed in several posts before, I have this disease called procrastination and it has advanced to Stage 3.  Luckily, my meds are helping and I’m getting back into a rhythm here.

Jake, my bad man! 

Maybe it’s time to slow down and smell the roses…er,  I mean Poppies!” emailed Jake.  I’m curious, how many times do you get pulled over and issued speeding tickets becuase of this vanity license plate?  If I was a asshole cop and was having a bad day, I’d probably pull you over just becuase.  Well, maybe I’d let you go becuase you were in a 350z.
