Tag fee shock!!!

[Stimw]

I just bought a used motor home and now they are charging $77. JUST TO TRANSFER THE TITLE! I wonder how much that is per keyboard key pushed.
She told me if I didn't have a tag (I had one from vehicle that I just sold) that just the cost of the tag was now $28. What happened to prisoners making licence tags?

In Colorado there are two additional fun things: there is no (real) non-op condition, as the license fees are really the last vestige of personal property tax (that lets you take them off of your federal income tax), part of that 'you might get what you asked for' thing; due to an approved (voter as I recall) creation of a 'roads and bridges' tax, trailer and vehicle taxed go up ~$15-$45 per vehicle each year (2009-2011).

It's interesting to learn what anything costs in other places, but please keep in mind that politics is a prohibited topic on Tractorbynet, so please just tell what it costs; not what you think of the politicians.

In Az the actual tag is about $6.50 but they hit you with the advolorem fee which was over $500 on my 07 avalanche and 06 F250.

Trailers have all kinds of possibilities based on personal or business use. My 12,000 horse trailer could have been around $250 a year or a one time fee of $800 I took the one time fee.

And that would be....

I wondered myself...but from his name I am guessing Tennessee!

I pay about $250 or so in NC for my "weighted" tag. Vehicle is a 99 F250 and is tagged for 16,000.

watch out for the ddrivers license renewal in florida too. was 32 now 54. expecting my tag renewal in the mail box any day now mine should be about the same as yours.

I've been paying $50+ for years. CDLs do that to you. Ours get to rise to $75.

No one has yet mentioned the Virginia Personal Property tax on vehicles, so I will chime in...
Virginia taxes personal property at NADA blue book value annually. I think it is right around 4% or so. Cost me roughly $1,000 last year for tax and $65 for actual tags for my '06 Dodge 2500. Since it is registered for 10k gross, it does not get a tax rebate like vehicles less than 8k gross. Now my '02 Ranger was around $100 tax and $65 tags... Makes one wonder where the money is being used. My gravel road has potholes approaching the size of an old VW beetle....

Adding to dangier_VA quote. Each Virginia county has a different percentage for personal property taxes. I'm in the military and live in Suxxex Co., with my home of record of Martinsville, VA. Sussex rates are almost twice the amount of Martinsiville, so I claim my home of record as Martinsville and save hundreds per year. Dangier can you change your registration to the actual weight of your cummins, it would save you some serious tax dollars.
