Ok… a little off topic.
California DMV sent me a ‘late’ notice.. some how I over looked my registration for my Audi S/4 in last month.- stupid me! . The original registration cost in February was $207..Yesterdays mail shows $507.00 for being late.. FYI…… I know California from a financial point of view is underwater – but it appears that they have bent me over to recover what they have over spent on their projects!

Good news Ohio is only $ 20 and they give you a extra few days after people bitched !!! The great thing about 914 is Historical Plates $ 45 and good to 2050!! The paper work won't last to 2050!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/WTF.gif) What about Calaforina more reason to move to a fly over state!!

California DMV is the worst. I live in Cali but I also own a home in Bullhead City, AZ. I register all my cars in AZ. They have no smog requirements and you can reg your car for two years as opposed to one year. There is never a line at their DMV and most eveyrting is done online. I have a license from that state as well at it is valid for 20 YEARS.

California will make you register your car in Ca when they catch you. They did that to my in-laws back in 2003. When my wife and I still lived in Ca. and they were down from Oregon for awhile, a CHP pulled them over and told them they noticed their plates for a few months and they would have to register the car in this state or they will have it towed the next time they saw them.

They also moved up the due date and they pretend they don't know what to do with mailed in payments. I just had to go down there and wait to show them that I had indeed mailed the payment in on time. No way it took 3 weeks to get to them... They had to trim off the late fee which in the case of the 914 was $60.

I moved away from the Bay area in 1995 for a job in AR. In 2000 I paid $7 for an antique plate, one time, for the life of the car. I miss California for some things. but mostly not. Especially since I discovered that Arkansas has some of the most incredible driving roads in the US and less than 2.5M people in the whole state.

Now that's a lot of hilly country roads my driving friends. California can ....

In CA all of my life and I hate the DMV. For the most part those people could not get a job anywhere else. But because they are such asshats, the day I get my registration notice in the mail I pay it on-line and it is done. Highway robbery normally, I can't imagine how I would feel if they added the stupid penalties to the fee.

registration fees for this are $641 this year....(just the truck (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) )
and I also get to pay for a smog check....$65
Yes a smog check on a 2 year old diesel 3/4ton pickup truck.
They check for excessive black smoke on acceleration, all proper smog gear is present, and fuel cap seals properly....what a deal.
They don't even put them on the machine or put them on the dyno drums...

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) Me too. That way its's never late, I have a confirmation number and I won't forget. I usually get the new tags in a week or two. Better than waiting in line!

I usually go to AAA and use their limited DMV services...
one or two people in line...no BS most of the time...
They get my check, I watch them enter it into the computer, and I walk out with my new tags...

I just dug up the renewal notice ...


- Registration fee = $57
- License fee = $6
- District fee = $10

Total = $73

If 10 days late = $94
If a month late = $104
If two month late = $137
If more than two month late = $137


Doesn't sound bad enough to me to consider moving into the boonies across country ... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I do it all online. I hate waiting in line and dealing with people who could not hold a job with me. Can't blame them, they probably have nothing there to encourage them to be better.
