Vehicle registration?

Yeah, makes you feel like you're buying it all over again. For the same truck you already have!

You guys must be rich.

I?ve never paid more than about $450 for plates.

It does ruffle my feathers when it costs that much for motorcycle plates though.

I paid $977 to plate an 8 year old truck I bought from a private party.

I have yet to pay more than $20K for a vehicle so maybe that?s why I don?t see the huge numbers some of you do.

Now I?m a little scared of buying the wife something new.

My truck cost $7700.
I got boned on the sales tax because I didnt buy from a dealer that was responsible for including that in the sale.
My $21k truck I got from a dealer was around $500 to register.

That?s pretty much what I?m used to seeing.

When I hear people paying $1K+ for plates I always assume they must have spent $50K or more on a vehicle.

I?ve been seriously considering upgrading my wife to something nice and will probably end up spending around $40K.

I think it also depends on the age of the vehicle.

Brand new 1 ton diesel trucks are not cheap.

Fortunately, the state only assess it at the base MSRP, not the +20K for the trim level. But they sure do make up for it with this annual ownership tax. Complete BS. EVERY. FUCKING. YEAR.

I swore to myself I was going to keep my old truck until I died and would never buy another new vehicle, yet here I am.

My guess is if you spend 40k for a vehicle your tags will be around a 1000$. When we bought our 2017 toyota seinna tags were 815$. I have a 2019 kia sportage and tags were 420$. Stright robbery
