you haven't done your CDL this year have you?Originally Posted by streetglideok
cuz now you have to fax in your medical card so they can update your license somehow online, every time the medical card expires
but
you still have to carry the card on you
despite the fact not one DOT cop has ever asked for my medical card.
oh, yes, we live in the freest country in the world. (sarcasm)

Just got done with this crap myself - renewed my CDL, but my med didn't expire until like 2 or 3mo later. Then got a letter in the mail saying they'd suspend my license if I didn't bring in the updated medical form. Stood in line for 1-1/2hrs just to have her make a copy of the form and say thanks.you haven't done your CDL this year have you?

Guess I should have read the letter completely & seen the fax number on the bottom.
You guys are scarying him.
He did say he planned on buying land and living here, so he will have to do this eventually.
It is a pain but if you have the paperwork needed it is not that bad. I went to boulder DMV to get an MVR, moving fast, was there less than half an hour. Guy in front me to the initial check in the guy was getting a CO drivers license. He had 2 bills addressed to him an out of state drivers license and his birth certificate. The intake gal said good, take this test and bring back to me. So not too hard.......
"The rifle itself has no moral stature, since it has no will of its own. Naturally, it may be used by evil men for evil purposes, but there are more good men than evil, and while the latter cannot be persuaded to the path of righteousness by propaganda, they can certainly be corrected by good men with rifles. --Jeff Cooper"

According to the website, I only need to bring my Mil ID and a utility bill to meet the requirements. To be safe, I'm going to bring my social security card and birth certificate, along with another piece of mail.
To you "fear mongers" (lol) I am maintaining my Michigan residency and DL, so I can still get out of state registration for my vehicle (only saves about $20 a year) and FYI, if you are military, you get the same discount on registration as long as you are not a "legal resident of Colorado". I intend to stay a legal resident of Michigan for a little while, and as far as I can tell, there are no issues here. I looked all over the IRS website and both Colorado an Michigan state websites and it seems that as long as I am active duty, I can maintain Michigan as my legal state of residence.
I'll be off active duty in a few years, and then I'll probably become a full-on Colorado resident for taxes and all that.

Humm,Ok... I wouldn't, no advantage- Can still buy property, can still do trades with forum members (show orders), can get CCW. Don't see the advantage besides taking a folder of paper work w/ you part..
Anyway I guess "Welcome" regardless....
Changed: Do it just a little time out of your day!
I'm seriously sick of having trading post deals fall through because I don't have a CO DL. And it seems that every gun store has different requirements.. I've had multiple gun stores demand a letter from my commander authorizing a firearms purchase, along with orders and my Michigan DL and my Mil ID. Then again, 2 of the stores I've purchased from only wanted my orders and Mil ID. I'm just sick of the guessing game and the extra hassle.
