Yes, you're lucky. Here in GA it's based on the value of your car...

Luckily, mine's getting old, so it was only $135.

you can thank that asshole Gov. McGreedy.

he hiked a couple of taxes on us and this new tax (the registration fee) is aimed at turning the money around for special pet interests he has. :mad:


another reason why I'm moving out of Jersey.

The registration is based on weight class. I'm guessing the Montero is one heavy beast. My registration for my Tacoma is $98 and it only weighs around 3300-3400 lbs but fully laden it is 5000 lbs. so the registration is the 5000 lbs weight class. I hate Jersey. Damn insurance, shitty roads and traffic, high property tax..... I want to move. Anyone know where (other than Jersey) they are hiring software developers?:dunno

you're on your own with the software biz - but I'm running out to Florida and I'm planning on buying properties and getting fat off the rent checks.

nope, I don't have to worry about that traffic on the parkway or even on rt280 (exit 145) since I don't drive to work in the morning. heck, I don't even have to get up early unless my girlfriend nudges me in bed if she wants to have breakfast out of the house. :D

it's nice when you don't have work in Jersey, I'm a tax free fool. :D

good, maybe he can hook you up with discounted registration fees and perhaps slide you through the state inspection then.

see how good of a greasy public employee he really is, just tell him that you'll vote for him for his re-election bid. as any career politician, he'll do anything for another vote.


if not, dress up like him and video tape you and your girl on your wedding night as you consumate your marriage. it should be good for a couple of more tickets to see britney. :D :laugh
