I don't even get my own cans out on time

In all seriousness, I didn't get into this hobby to save money. I chose normal plates because I want the ability to drive my Jeep whenever I want, as much as I want, and without additional restrictions. There is always debate about how well the Historic Plate rules are enforced, but the extra $55 is a small price to pay to have the piece of mind about bending anymore rules (you're already driving something that was sold for scrap). Spring the $10 to the Legion for a Veteran Plate. Although I said I wouldn't run one while still serving, I think the Jeep is an exception (my DD still has normal plates). I get quite a few compliments on having a Vet Plate on a Vet Vehicle.
