LIR ty - I'd have to pay something like $40 in taxes - cheaper b/c it's being given as a gift (MVA just told me it would technically have to be sold

to me for $1.00 since we are not relatives. Only relatives can give a car as a "gift".)

What really gets me right now though is that I have to pay another $180 to register this car, even though I just paid this less than 6 months ago to register the truck. Apparently there is no transfer registration. What a waste of money.

God, I hate Maryland.

THis is exactly how I got my first car, except I bought it from them for $10. Tax was $0.50. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 09:22 1
- now they probably charge a minimum tax based on the book value of the car. they do here. -- nm - zork Sep 14, 09:33

I doubt such thing as a "transfer registration" exists. -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 09:05 4
- actually, it does in maryland, but you have to have already sold/gotten rid of the old car and the new car has to be the same type - tRuMaN Sep 14, 09:34
- It does in RI. -- nm - kelly Sep 14, 09:11 2
  - From a truck to a car? -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 09:12 1
    - AFAIK you can transfar plates from a car to a truck, so I'd imagine it works the other way around, too. -- nm - kelly Sep 14, 09:14
ok, but did you ask if you turn the truck tags in if they give a refund for the remaining time? - tRuMaN Sep 14, 09:05 8
- I don't think NY does this ... dunno about RI. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 09:23 4
  - (All I care about now is if Maryland does it.) :) - kelly Sep 14, 09:29 3

      - Danke. (I swear, I looked for this.) :) -- nm - kelly Sep 14, 09:39
    - oh, right. and this reminds me I have to renew my tags. -- nm - loosilu Sep 14, 09:36
- This is the norm. -- nm - Spawn Sep 14, 09:13
- Really? I'll have to check into this. Thanks. -- nm - kelly Sep 14, 09:12
