255$ a year, every year no matter how old or how much your car costs.

that's Quebec for ya. I had a 91 Buick skylark GS that cost me 200 bucks, registration was more than the price of the car!

Yes... Insurance is more.  But as an insured driver for over 20 years now... I have to admit I'm still a little ahead on the what was paid / what I've got back.  All thanks to a stolen Acura Integra.

Funked,

Be glad you're not registering a new expensive vehicle in Arizona. Registration is based upon the value of the vehicle. For some rather pricey iron you will pay several hundred dollars every year. Some have paid over a thousand. If you have a vehicle that costs more than $35-40k you better get ready for sticker shock.

The upside of this is that property taxes are much lower here than in states with a fixed or reduced vehicle tax. At least if yu have an older vehicle the tax goes down. If it appreciates like my Comanche does.....it goes up. In 1993 I registered the plane for $105.00, this year it was $145.00. Of course the value of the plane has increased. I paid $21,500 for it and it is now worth about $45k. Gotta love plane valuations....in some cases. Some planes HAVE decreased in value.

Have another year left until I have to get new tags...$35 like Mini-d.  Just renewed my license tho', $15 and I'm good until 2007, and they were even kind enough to send me a letter so I could renew by mail.  California sucks, you already knew this.  Tard.  :p

it doesn't have anything to do with cars, planes, houses, or anything , it has to do with money, the state needs money , you have money , the state takes your money, it's just that simple.

i got a better idea. how about they not allow you to drive on any highways and remove all publics services. you dont need mail anyways do you. Its not theft. we get far more then we pay for. you sound like a whiney spoiled little kid.

Listen Frogtard, the service I'm getting for $205 is a tag on my car.  Period.  

Roads and other stuff are covered by state and federal income taxes, the ludicrous 8.25 percent sales tax, and the gasoline taxes which are so high I have blotted them out of my memory.

So $205 for what?  They update the computer file with my information and print out and mail me a sticker.  You are telling me that's worth $205?  Err wait, if I read right, you are telling me that's worth more than $205.  Funny values you have.

And BTW the junk mail distribution system errrr USPS is funded by postage fees, not taxes.  Postage is probably too high as well, but it ain't $205, and at least they provide a service.

paying for the entire public sector of our economy costs alot of cash. deal with it or go to mexico. i hear they dont have much in the way of taxes down there.

frogtard... if we gave all the money that we spend in gas taxes to a private co. we would have one more lane added to every highway in the U.S and wouldn't even need to pay for regestration.

when you grow up and pay taxes you may understand a little more about them but... probly not.   Here is how it works.. the more money you throw at government the more they feel obligated to waste it so that they spend it all before next year.

we all pay something like 34 cents a gallon in taxes that are suppossed to go toward maintining the highways.   Bills have been introduced that will make this an enterprise fund... the money can only be spent on highways and roads.   if this happens there will be a huge surplus.

you might be able to drive down the highway without loosening your fillings and our freeways will handle the traffic so that they aren't parking lots most of the time..

the savings in energy will be huge when people aren't sitting still with their cars running in traffic for hours on end.

getting the government out of roads will be a good thing for everyone.... except the government.   which is a good thing.

cow farts? i thought it was sheep farts that caused global warming?

EPA studies show that methene gas released by farm animals may contribute to greenhouse effect.
