Got my Licence plate finally

I purchased a YOM plate off ebay a while back and decided it was time to get it registered. From everything I have read about Florida, you basically send the plate to tally with all the proper documents and a check and they send it back. I sent my plate off mid July with a check for $50 assuming that would cover the cost of registration, well you know what they say about assuming. So around the end of august I got a letter from the DMV stating that I was short in the amount of $3.10 which had to be paid by check. After sending the additional funds and waiting another month, I have finally received my plate.

I was never a fan of the antique or classic plates that Florida offers, and I think these YOM plates just add to the car.
 
$50.00 should have covered it with change back. I sent them $50.00 and got back $17.50 (last year). It sounds like they went ahead and charged you the new " bend over and grab your ankles" rate. The plate looks great by the way.
 
Yep, should have gotten change back unless they went more time on yours. Mine cost me ,,,,,I think about $21 and some change. Nice to have and much better than the baby blue and white ones.
 
I know they raised the rates this past year, and I also sent it in exactly when my birthday was so they charged for the full year and not a partial. I would of thought 50 would be enough to cover it, but at this point I am just glad I got it back and its registered.
 
The GH means Commercial 2051-3050 lbs rating of the original vehicle it was assigned to. Not used any more. The first number is the county....also not used anymore. Just get a good plate and use it.

Mine is 49D which is (49)Hendry county and (D)Passenger < 2500 lbs. I am in Bay county and the weight is more.

At least that is what this site shows....
