In Massachusetts, I sign the title, write a bill of sale (stating the car is being sold "as is"), and take my plates off the car. The new buyer puts his old plates on the car and has 7 days to get new plates (his insurance covers him from his "old car" for the 7 days also.

So here in CO, I assume, I sign my title, write a bill of sale and pull my plates, correct? and just out of curiosity, can he put plates from 1 car on this one to drive home?

Is there anything I'm missing here?











Oh, and thanks for all the help you guys have been with Colorado specific stuff... so far I have found a contractor from a recommendation here, got the skinny on getting my CCW, found a FFL, found a tax guy, a place to shoot (although the place sucked), a place to duck/goose hunt, and a few restaurants to try out
As an old car sales manager, I will tell you that they can only drive without a plate after the sale for 24 hrs. The insurance coverage is based on whatever the insurance company feels like doing, they need to check with their company. You sign the title, get a bill of sale written up, take off your plates, and your end is over with. They cannot drive on any other plates because that is illegal.
