Default New Texas License Plates

OK omg I cannot believe the people of this great state voted that plate to be the new texas plates. I cannot get over how ugly they are. The ugly blue and kind of red on there totally contrast with the rest of the car. Like all I can focus on now this ugly color pattern on the back of any nice vechicle.

How just how could that have been the #1 choice of the people (since we did get to vote this one in)???
.
The best plates were the texas flag ones or the straight up white and black ones. For a while last year you could get black with white letters but that whole project went out the window.

ya they suffer from a major case of the gay. You can spend extra and get a custom plate that isnt gay looking but its like 70-80 a yr.

btw, this is what we are talking about.




compared to what we were on, which is this.



These were the other 3 options we could have had instead of that ugly *** top one.





OK well I feel better that I am not the only one that things they are just super ugly. too much color. If you are car isn't blue then it looks like ***.

Actually the last generation one (which most people still have) was an option as well. Except with 7 digits instead of 6 being the only change. But the idiots of Texas apparently wanted a change.

Aside from the uglyness of the new plates, has anyone seen the new drivers licenses!?

I got mine renewed, and after waiting 3 months in the mail. It finally came. I could not begin to explain how ugly it looks.
