Man, I would totally pay for some sticker or something saying I'm exempt from a front plate. They probably could generate another $100 or so off me a year if they offered that. I can't figure out how useful those front plates are for the police when new cars can go without them for what, 30 days, 60 days, and any car visiting the state from a home state without a front plate rule can run without it.
If there was a 3rd party that managed an electronic beacon that you just mounted somewhere (like the quick toll digital beacons) and it JUST transmitted local (100 foot range or something) license info about the car and not GPS location or speed or anything I probably would pay $100 or so a year for that option to get rid of a front plate!
