Re: Why Are Custom Plates So Expensive in TX?

The myplates.com started around 2007 or so. they initially handled only a few of the personalized plates but have since expanded dramatically to include most of them. Most non-profit org plates are still handled directly by TxDOT but I look for that to change as well. The reason I am up on this is, I have run personalized plates in some form or another for the last 20 years. :) I still do but my current ones were purchased before that particular style got handed over to myplates.com so they still only cost me $40 extra a year. We plan to move to Alabama to be near our son in about 3 years and plan to go with the FOP or LE Memorial plates that AL offers.

Re: Why Are Custom Plates So Expensive in TX?

The price sky rocketed when they outsourced most personalized plates to MyPlates.com My wife has personalized Peace Officer Memorial plates on her truck. They cost $40 a year plus normal registration. She has had then two years. That same plate is now handled by MyPlates and its price has more than doubled.
