There were more Ferraris registered per capita in Montana last year than any other state. Do you REALLY think any of those cars were EVER actually in Montana? The DMVs in other states are not stupid and as has been proven they even monitor this website. In NYS it is all about the sales tax and they are not gonna miss out on thousands of revenue dollars!

The Montana LLC thing has been going on for years. In fact, I just saw a picture of a New Ford GT with Montana plates. From a guy I think ought to know better. Colorado about 10 years ago went around looking for the big motor homes and dinged the owners with a fine plus back registrations plus interest. Montana is also a favorite haven for private planes and big boats (Montana doesn't have a lake big enough for a Cigarette boat!)
