I had to go to the state snooper's cop shop (70 miles away) for a VIN verification when I took a vehicle into WI to license. at the time WI was something like $25 a yr for license. The next year they changed to something like $90 a year flat rate. At the same time, I was paying $13 or $16 a year for MB 110 Diesels in a joining state, based on depreciation. A new car was hundreds there for license, but I took advantage of the depreciated rate by driving mostly old vehicles.


Actually, Florida is one of the saner states I have lived in as far as the DMV is concerned. The only one I can think of that was better was Wisconsin.

Indiana was patronage job heaven (the DMV used to be run by the governor's political party) and California was a total nightmare to try and navigate if you had anything out of the ordinary.

As for the VIN verification issue, the only time you have to do it is when the title is being transferred in from out of state. If it's Florida car or a new car, VIN verification is not required.

 California likes cars but hates polluters.  So there are no safety

 is basically the Northeast without snow).


 Florida is east of the Appalachians last time I checked.
