My car licensing costs really dropped when I moved to Idaho. California was sucking almost $500/year per car. Idaho takes $53 for 4 years per vehicle. I'm also freed from having to pass a Smog II every 2 years on my 914. I wasn't even driving the car and still ended up paying $1200 to get the damn thing tuned up for a pointless smog test. I've spent more on tune-ups to pass Smog II than I paid for the damn car. Thank God I left California.

My car insurance costs dropped way down too. The high rate of auto theft in San Diego really drives up insurance rates in that area.

It cost me 52 bucks to tag my Ferrari in Florida, including the new plate.

17 bucks for my Mustang yesterday.

Should have just dumped half a tank of ethanol (mix with half tank premium gas) in the tank. it would have passed no problem.
