The personal property tax (cars, boats, etc) is reduced each year depending on the value of the vehicle. We also pay property tax on our home and land which is quite low.
All in all, this combination of taxes is still lower than Iowa, Minnesota or other states and much lower than Illinois.
In order to get new tags for your car, you have to bring proof of having paid last year’s car tax. We have two boats, a pickup truck and a car (but no airplane.) Taxes on all amount to less than $350.

The Pilatus PC-12 is a wonderful airplane too.

I'd love to fly one of those.

It’s a reasonable rate. I’m not sure if I could be well organized enough to ensure that I paid taxes on everything like that. But it does stretch her credibility to say she didn’t realize she didn’t pay taxes on a little thing like a plane.
