• The site migration is complete! Hopefully everything transferred properly from the multiple decades old software we were using before. If you notice any issues please let me know, thanks! Also, I'm still working on things like chatbox, etc so hopefully those will be working in the next week or two.

It's quarterly property tax on the blue book value of the car on top of the registration and sales tax.

We pay 7% sales tax on the vehicle (book value or sale price, whichever is higher), then Title fee, new registration or transfer fee, and a couple others. Then you pay a yearly car tax based on value (which differs from town to town, some towns knock off zero, 1 grand to 5 grand, some do a percentage. It's lopsided and weird. they even have it figured by how many days you had it registered, like if you sold it or junked it, by when you turn in or transfer your plate. Like if you junked it in March, but hung on to the plates for the rest of the year hoping to score another ride, you have to pay for the whole year.
