Registration sticker shock

[don moore]

$55 for 4 years..oregon

ARGHHHH!! Sore subject! Lived in Los Angeles, learned painful reality of like $500 - $600 per car per yr plus SMOG test fees, then moved to Texas & took great delight in paying only $72/yr per car flat fee, no SMOG....but then, uggggghhhh, moved to AZ 15 months ago & realized they're just about as high as Calif....

Then coincidentally transferred registration on hubby's FJ and traded my car for a new 4Runner in the same month....MARCH '08.....don't EVEN ask how bad THIS March was! Note to self.....don't get 2 cars registered in same month in AZ ...oh and let's throw in the appendectomy/hospital bill too .....OUCH! Oh well, at least I'm alive.....and my VX is in December. :grinp:

"OK, you can feel bad NOW!"

Thanks Gregg. I was starting to feel better but then I remembered that I have to renew the tags on the TLC in April.

"Note to self.....don't get 2 cars registered in same month in AZ"

Thanks Kat. Don't do that anywhere ... of course that's why I forgot that my tags were expiring on the VX - 6 cars (ours & kids) that all have inspections & tags spread out all over the calendar ...
