BNWR 691 to be sure

I always found it intriguing that the license plate for Ford's Caddy is so close to the Range Rover Lisi was driving:

BNWR 691: Cadillac Escalade, registered to Deco
BNWH 091 (previously BHHZ 513): Land Rover Range Rover, registered to Walter Sima.

(ITO, Appendix A, pp 35-36, PDF doc pp. 55-56)

Coincidence? Probably. It just raised my eyebrow first time I went through the ITO how similar the plates were.

Or maybe it's directed at the guys behind the lawsuit? So many crazy things happening in his life it could be anything.

Exactly, it could be ANYONE. Ford's a hothead who likes to rant. Zero impulse control at the best of times, and he's high as all get out in that video.

I think the only person we can be sure the video is NOT about is....Hulk Hogan.

How often do "folks" change their plates? I've replaced cars, but not my plates in the last 40 years.

That's not my plate, but mine are identical. From the "73" three letter "B" "KEEP IT BEAUTIFUL" series.

To keep on topic, I wonder if our mayor will ever make them?

Here, they just switched over to the 4-letter prefixes. I was told that you could tell if someone registered before or after you depending on the last letter/#s.
Maybe Ford is paying for his hook up's (Rat Lisi) ride as well as 15 Windsor's bills?

Those plates are 10600 variations apart by my count, and Ford has run through a plate or two since the Escalade, I'm with you on the probably.

I disagree. Ford is a hothead but he's only a hothead about himself and his family. He couldn't give shit number one about a by-election in Toronto Danforth. It's just not a thing to him at all.

Whatever he was ranting about it was about his personal "cred".

I always loved that Ontario's plate motto was basically "No littering".

I replaced mine because the blue was really faded. I can't remember how old but I think they were almost 20 years old. The funny thing is, I've seen a few plates where the numbers/letters were only 1 or 2 off from mine. I think they must be sequential at various license plate offices.
 
Ford's old license plate was "ROB FORD". I'm sure he felt more comfortable driving himself into shady situations after he got new plates.

I've seen AVAN-### on a Smart car.

I've seen BENZ-### on a Benz.

Random chance can be amusing.
