Thing is here, the tags are not expensive, but you have to insure the vehicle before you can get a tag on it. Therefor, I have one tag that I can switch between several MB's. They are all MB;s so they really dont know the difference unless they decide to check the VIN. Never had a problem (knock on wood). If it ever did happen I would just say, gee ocifer, I have so many cars I must have got the plates mixed up. No, Im not going to put a chevy plate on my MB though.
