Thinking of a couple..

FOPEC .. Freedom from OPEC (Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries)

or maybe

EFFOPEC .. Ensuring Freedom From OPEC

F... for Freedom. Yeah, that's the first thing that jumped into my mind too. ;)

Of course you can choose which group you want to be free from. (For example, here in Florida, we're not too keen on BP ever since they dumped a "Freedom" Load of oil in our water.)

"F BP"

Funny.  My local association of electric auto owners just started a similar thread.  Here are some of their ideas (note - not sure how many digits/characters you get in your state, buy in Missouri, six is the maximum:

AMPEATR
AMPLE
AMP ME
CHARGE
ELECTRC
GASLESS
KILOWTT
NO GAS
OHMMY
REVOLT
SMOGLSS
SMOKLSS
VOLTAGE
WATTSUP
WEVOLT
ZEROGAS
WTFLUX
PLUGIN

And I submitted this one, which I've seen in photos of a Tesla in California:

Sadly, a gas car...but I got the plates to hold that name until I get my EV....hopefully within a year.

This made me sad.  Why?  Because of the second post you ever made here:
Hello....My name is Gavin. I am a Mod over at Aptera forum and an MyNissanLEAF.com. I live in Albuquerque, New Mexico...recently canceled my Aptera order after over 2 years of waiting. Currently have an early reservation for a LEAF, with a likely delivery of Jan 2011. I am 49 years old in about a week...told myself I could buy any car I want when I turned 50...but not sure if I'm ready for a cage just yet...

I guess us EV folks have to be a patient lot.

Ha....actually I could have a Leaf right now...

I really wanted:

The Aptera....long story


But then I wanted either a Volvo C30 EV or Fiat 500 EV...neither are out yet...

So I was in line for the LEAF...but I also was offered to be one of the first 500 Fiat 500s in the US...

So I was in line for the LEAF and the 500...the 500 came first..so I got it planning to trade it in for the 500 EV later this year...

Who knows if it will come out....

I also would get a Honda Fit EV...the LEAF is just bigger and not as exciting as I would like...now if Nissan made the Altima coupe an EV I would get one ASAP.


Basically I want a small commuter EV...the LEAF just was too late and lost my interest....

Whichever I can get first...fiat 500 EV, Volvo C30 EV or Homda Fit EV...that is what will be my next car...

Sadly New Mexico is usually about last for EV cars...

How about VPRWRE for our previous ornery poster.  All the other ones I would use have already been posted such as CHARGE, etc.
