[G.R.]

I moved here in'95 from Colorado and almost went into cardiac arrest when we went to register our '95 Honda lx wagon and '90 Chev 4x4 pu. We paid nearly $1200 in WA "taxes" just to drive here legally. The Honda new in Colorado for license, registration etc. was $255--here $695, the truck $130--here $480--
Brought my boat here, Fed documented, home port at the time in Colorado--never had to pay state fees etc., in Co or CA(there for 2 years) never had to license the dinghy either, gotta ticket here for "non-compliance" had to register the boat and dinghy,here it costs $350 a year for the boat, $55 for the dink .

Registered my SPF as a 2000, no Emissions as we live in Kitsap.
Glad "that" initiative went thru or I'd probably spend close to $1500 to license the car today

This state has some serious money(tax collection)mis-management problems.

I think in the Future it may get very hard to register a "Cobra type kit car" most anywhere.

Still wonder though how the "Hot Rod builders" get their cars emission passed and licensed since a lot of them are using late model power for their cars?
