Very interesting discussion. Amazing how States can be soooo different in regards to taxes.

Sounds like those who pay no tax on their vehicles and/or State Income Tax make up for it in Sales Tax. I'd hafta run that thru this ole "calculator mind" several times to make a determination of which is worse or better. With that said, I can definitely see why those States don't need to collect any other types of tax. 9% sales tax. Ouch....... That would really sneak up on you by the end of the year.......

I just looked at my truck papers. I pay $104 p/year for a 24K lb plate. I can't tell you what my property tax is on that vehicle. I'll hafta look tonight when I go in the house.

I'm gonna stick my oar into this pond.
I pay $75.oo/2 years for license sticker. IF I need to replace the tin plate, which I don't then it is another $20.oo
I don't need an E-test because of where I live.
I pay out property tax on my house and 5 acres of land to the township.
Provincial income tax gets calculated with the Federal income tax due at the end of April.
A new vehicle, boat, skidoo or what have you gets 8% Provincial sales tax + 5% federal sales tax.= 13% hst (harmonized sales tax) or as I call it hose and screw tax
Sell it and the buyer has to pay the 13% combined taxes yet again.

That sounds about what MN charges.

MI raised the rates and the gas tax to raise another $1.2 billion per yr for road funding. Our roads are horrible mainly from freeze thaw cycles and heavy trucks. I don't like the higher fees any more than the next guy but I don't like driving on horrible roads either so I'll pay it if it gets us better roads.

In CT we pay 6.35% sales tax to the state when you buy it (if under $50K. If over, tax is 7.75%), $85 registration to the state every 2 years and property tax to the town every year. Property tax varies by town. A $10,000 car in the town of Greenwich is taxed $103.90. The same $10,000 car in Hartford is $742.90. Bugs me we pay sales tax and property tax on the same item.

Mass has 6.25% sales when you buy it. Annual excise tax to town (1.25%) of value as set by state. Registration is $60 for 2 years. Vanity plates are $80 per year.

Here in Oregon it's $86 for a two year registration for cars and pickups; they charge more if you need new plates. I expect it to go up again as they're always crying poormouth and haven't met a tax scheme here they aren't too ashamed to run up the flagpole.
