Or state license plate? Would the app tell you? Some people have a preference, especially if they're parking on the street overnight and want to blend in. Some people want something unique, like if they see a loud obnoxious yellow NJ plate in TX. Some people before the pandemic, when FL plates usually meant the car was actually purchased new in FL, noted those cars tend to be base model, and often heavily worn out from tourist peak season.
I usually go for low mileage for less chance of a trashed car. Thats not a surefire method by any means, but I have definitely got burned by taking a complimentary upgrade with more miles.
