Exactly! Sell me a set of plates that can be moved from car to car and I will keep enough different ones around so that I can haul stuff when needed and get good economy when I don't have to be utilitarian. Paying the insurance on each makes me keep fewer vehicles on the road but makes me drive the Supercrew a lot of the time when I don't need a vehicle that big. I drive it the couple of miles from home to the office and back twice each day because it is my winter vehicle. If I could have another smaller one too, I probably would but I am not going to pay another licence and insurance. In winter we have 3 on the go full time and in summer, usually 5.

So you have the same stupid system we do where you are punished for owning more than one vehicle per driver? Fer cryin' out loud, does owning 12 cars (our total) make me 12x times more likely to smash into someone? I doubt it. Fortunately I can get them registered without insurance, and we roll the insurance around on our working set, but it takes doing. It's not compulsory (yet) at vehicle licensing time. Alla that crap ought to be like fuel taxes, that way they'd be direct use taxes. -- Jim _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com For new parts see official list sponsor: http://www.buymbparts.com/ For used parts email [EMAIL PROTECTED] To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
