We have a lot of people license their cars in Oregon, ( it about $25 for 2 years). They have family, business address, or some mailing address. I personally know of a couple of people who do this. And this is just to save on Idaho's annual auto tax and fee of $35-$60. I think business could move out and individuals who live on the border of neighbor states might do a little cheating. Buy gas across the border. Oregon has refused to put in a sales tax because of their border retailers. You tax, things happen.

Idaho vehicle registration is dirt cheap compared to California. I don't have to screw with smog checks in Pocatello either. My auto insurance is a lot less expensive than it was in San Diego too. Gasoline is cheaper too. Now that I'm telecommuting 100%, my Saturn SL2 is accruing almost 1000 miles EACH YEAR. I was accruing that much EACH MONTH on my commute to work in San Diego. I did have to buy a battery charger to keep the battery topped up.

It's a real treat to make my QUARTERLY trip to the gas station.
