Title for a tractor ??

No titles in Ohio, never heard of one before.

My bank had a vin number and a address, they can't put a lean on a title.

Bill of sale is as good as it gets.

I am sure glad there is no title on my tractor. If the city knew I had it, I would get a personal property tax bill.

No title in Utah for tractors.

Idk if it works out to the same or better than what I pay but the personal property tax is stupid, that tax would rub me wrong.

I pay income, property and sales tax, those are the 3 biggest.

WA state has no titles but levy an annual excise tax on personal property which a tractor and implements are by definition. Enforced and collected by the counties. Businesses get nailed all the time due to having various business licenses to track them by. Businesses selling tractors have to collect the 8-11% sales tax but no other records exist unless it has a recorded lean. Lenders have an enforceable contract so do not record that. Homeowners are ignored unless they are after you for something else and the revenue wouldn't cover collection costs.
