Now, for a mere $215 per year, your rear license plate can be a digital display! And here's the wonderful part: when the vehicle is parked, you can personalize the display! Ain't that grand?  What ever will they think of next!

I recently went to a local Dodge dealer looking at new trucks. All of their vehicles come with a digital license plate already mounted, along with a $1,200 price tag for installing it!

And then they wonder why people don't enjoy 'The dealer experience".

And I'm sure you can get it removed before purchasing the vehicle.

When I first read a local article about these plates, it said the state was exploring the idea of displaying ads when the vehicle was stopped/parked. If so you can pretty much bet the revenue won’t go to the owner.
