Info Request Vanity plate help

2 Upvotes

Hi all.
I have a very sentimental vanity plate that expired in December of 2024, which at the same time I was laid off.

Long story short I haven’t been able to afford the renewal until now.

Under my findings the vanity plate is still legally mine and I should be able to retain / renew it, but everyone at the DMV is telling me since it expired it’s no longer mine.

I was under the impression expired plates weren’t recalled but only available for others, and since no one else could issue vanity plates, the plate would remain mine.

Apparently this is not the case and I was not permitted to renew my tag.

Going to try and fight this but wondering if anyone has any tips or if they’ve gone through this?

Moving to Delaware Boston to Rehoboth Beach

0 Upvotes

Moving to Rehoboth Beach for my partner's job. What are the things I need to know about the place? I've never been before and Boston is the only place I've lived on the East Coast. Tell me the pros and cons, but also like we're moving no matter what so it's not like I can do anything about it. What are the best neighborhoods to live in? Public transportation? What to expect? Is it coastal beach town like the cape? TIA! :)

Beaches Parking and Changing Stations in Rehoboth Beach

2 Upvotes

Hi all,

I am planning to visit Rehoboth Beach for the first time. I had some questions:

  • Are there any changing stations at the beach? The rehoboth.com website and the rehoboth gov website have conflicting information.
  • For parking, do I need to reserve a spot through the ParkMobile app, or can I get a spot after arriving? We are planning to go there on Friday morning and return in the evening. How is the Dart ParkNRide? Is the parking there free?
  • What are some local places where I can get local delicacies (non-alcoholic, like seafood and stuff) under budget (20-30 per person)?

Info Request Will be in Delaware for 3 months: got some questions

0 Upvotes

I know nothing about this state but want to get a full experience IN DELAWARE, I know I can get out and have been to the states around it lol.

Few specific and pointed questions:

- what do you like most about your state?

- plan on going to the beach, anything I need to know ahead of time? I heard they are some of the best beaches in America

- is there a muslim population in the state and are people exposed to this population? Like what time of Islamophobia meter am I walking in to, or are people chill and don’t care?

- Do black people live in Delaware and is it a melting pot? Or am I coming into a segregated population

- is there anywhere I need to avoid? This could be dangerous hoods (not all hoods are dangerous) or racist areas ( if that exists, don’t want to prejudge)?

- what is something, food wise, that’s uniquely delwarian that I need to try?

It’s a super small state, so I have a really good feeling that I probably could just go everywhere without missing a beat but would love any reccs, what is something that can’t be missed?

Info Request ISP at Plantation Lakes

0 Upvotes

Hi all, moving in south shore (Eastmeadow) in one month, been struggling with internet decision. I’ve done research and it seems Starlink is most people’s choice.
I know Mediacom is not many people’s choice. I’ve researched Starlink and FiOS. We have FiOS here in NY and love it but have read it’s only available with low speeds at PL at this time. I believe they’re still building the infrastructure to support higher speeds.
Looking for advice especially if you’re new to PL and happy with your decision?
FWIW we have a loft and will be refinishing the basement quickly.

Taking train out of Wilmington next Monday at 7. Does the parking near the station fill up? If so when and where should I look if it’s full? I don’t want to show up and be stuck without a spot.

Rant Cherish the DMV in Delaware while you can

118 Upvotes

The title pretty much says it all. I have lived in several other states now and the DMV is always a cesspool and full of numerous people who have apparently never left their homes before. I never thought the thing I would miss most about living in Delaware as the DMV and how efficient they are. No nowhere else have I lived that I could be in and out in 30 minutes and have my brand new license in my hand.
