I commute between Marin and Oakland and for a few months now, I notice a lot of out of state plates. Just found it interesting and wonder if anyone else has seen this?

I've been seeing lots of Michigan, Florida, Texas and Massachusetts plates. I thought that was strange considering how we're supposed to be in economic downturn

ever heard of visitors or people getting transferred? We see lots around here and did in TX and NM, but I really never thought much about it.

I have seen numerous Florida plates lately, not sure what is up with that since Florida is really nice this time of the year.

I also have a band of Ohioans that just moved into my building, equipped with Buckeye flags....

I haven't noticed more than usual. In the summer, you'll see a lot of Nevada plates, presumably since Reno and Tahoe are close, and also some Oregon plates congregating in Berkeley, which is sort of like the Oregon State Embassy in our midst.

Just recently moved from MASSACHUSETTS and have not gotten round to changing plates when I went to a GS Warriors game in which they beat the Celtics. I thought my little car would get trashed but it was not. Thanks CALIFORNIA.
