I drive… a lot. I somehow manage to log at least 30,000 miles a year between my two cars. I am all over the place, from Palm Harbor, over to Tampa and Brandon, back to St. Pete and then down to Sarasota and Bradenton, and I see some weird things in my travels. I love trying to decrypt some of the personalized tags I see and also wonder quietly to myself why almost every Virginia car has a personalized tag. It’s fun seeing what people to do customize their cars, too. I’ve hurt my neck shaking my head at some monstrosity that someone clearly loves and spent thousands of dollars on. I love people-watching too, and whether you want to admit it or not, but most of us are what we drive. Here are some random pictures of funny car tags/stickers/custom cars that were captured at various red-lights by either myself or my passenger/partner in crime.

I’m not sure how a Hyundai, that also gets great gas mileage and always seems to be driving slowly in the left lane, is repelling a hybrid Toyota, but ok.

I hope there’s an elevator. No way would I get all dressed up and climb a rope ladder to get in to this 4×4 Caddy Limo.

I’ll admit that I have a Terrible Towel flying in my office; but this is a little much, even for Bradenton.

The super rare, possibly one of a kind Nissan Titan “Savagelife” edition. Go ahead, Google it.

My detective skills say this is either an undercover cop car or someone’s grandparents died and left him the 1986 Caprice Classic in the will and the grandson has a 0% interest Pep Boys credit card.
