Ok, can anyone tell me why someone with a Mustang GT 500 would have a personalized plate that says 725 HP. I know you're thinking caps are on and want to rattle off that's what they produce. It wasn't a super snake though. Maybe he likes the Carol Shelby Z-Max commercial????

Saw a V6 '00 Camaro once that had "SS" stickers on it. Dude hadn't even bothered to get real badges. And he didn't have any of the SS body work on it. Posers. Just don't get it.

Ok, for the simpletons: Badge referenced in this context: A Badge is a device, patch, or accoutrement which is presented or displayed to annotate some feat of service, a special accomplishment, or as a simple means of identification.

keep it coming, but this thread could get lengthy if I have to define every word.......

Any more.....brain busters..... I'm a retired Army Sergeant Major, so I pretty much have a doctorate in Smartassism
