Here is a better one! I buy 2 new Mercedes Benz from a local dealer every year for me and my wife...Now I bought myselfan SL500..NO WAY did I want to drill a hole in the front bumper of that car for a plate holder! So, I happen to know a way around it as I do work for the RMV sometimes..Well I go to the RMV and apply for a missing /bent front plate, they charge me $15 for a peice of paper that states they are making me a new plate to replace the missing/bent one...I go to pick up my new Sl and the Dealer tells me I can not get a sticker without 2 plates on the car! I explain to them I have the certificate THEY DO NOT CARE ! and refuse me an inspection sticker! now johnnie boy here gets WAY upset after dropping more then 150K the day prior and i start arguing with the service manager he refuses me the sticker of inspection ON A BRAND NEW CAR! That I just bought from them...I explain to him, what if I hit a tree or pole dead on and the plate was gone, How do I buy a new car from you withonly one plate? He still refuses....I then went to the showroom and interuped the Sales Mgr in his meeting and told him to get a sticker on my car ASAP...He did. Now everytime I drive by a police car they pull me over for no front plate...I show them I work with them and that i have the certificate for a plate to be made (BTW it takes 6 weeks to 6 months to do this) I did eventually drill those holes and put a front plate on it as it was less trouble!
