The XPENSVE vanity plate is lame. The whole point of a vanity plate is to be witty by using the fewest letters possible that preserve the pronunciation of whatever you're conveying. It should be XPNSIV or even XPNSV.

@@DustinZilbauer that's an interesting take. I'd say it's lame in multiple ways.

I do run ND filters to make sure we're getting lots of good motion blur. That probably helps smooth things out.

You rated my 9WONWON plate as “Not Bad”. So I didn’t win, but does “Not Bad” mean I was #2? #3? Honorable Mention?

Every one of these I've seen here in Ohio the brackets for the vertical lift cylinders for the moldboard table are an ugly welded mess. Underneath the welds are very bad. Most have cracks running everywhere. I suspect shocks and vibrations transfer from the blade up through the cylinders to the brackets. Eventually, fatigue cracks start. If the repairman doesn't remove the crack to the bottom welding over top of it doesn't help. AL B retired weldor fabricator 😊.
