To: I Drive Too Fast

You can register ANY car (no matter what the vehicle is worth) for $20 + $1 mail in fee.

Geez...........
CA, I just registered my 2007 Chevy truck that has 251,000 on it for $307.
My buddy has a brand new Chevy 2500. He pays $900 to register that bad boy. CA prices are INSANE!!!

I USED to live in Calif-—for over 40 years...

The registration costs are beyond stupid. I bought a 1976 Chevy pickup truck in 1986. California wanted to charge me a COMMERCIAL rate for the truck because it didn’t have a camper shell on it and “I could use it for commercial purposes with the open bed”.

I tried to tell them that I only used the truck to haul my OWN horses-—nothing commercial. They wouldn’t budge. I went out I got a camper shell right away. Registration was STILL too high.

I still have the truck-—it now has over 348,000 on the chassis, and I also still have the camper shell. It costs me only around $70 to register it in N Nevada.

1979 Buick I bought in 1981 costs me $51 to register (it has over 216,000 miles) & 2001 4 horse trailer costs me $39.

There are a million reasons to leave California ASAP.
