Casaleenie,the tax that is being cut is in essense a personal property tax,roughly equivalent to 2% of the value of the vehicle.Ca.has other cleaver names for the same thing,depending on the vehicle.For example,if it's a boat it is called a "recreational"tax.In addition,you not only get to pay a yearly registration on the boat,but also the trailer(also get to insure both).Your simple little 17' Bayliner turns into a genuwine hole in the water that you shovel money into!Woo Hoo.The actual registration fee for my '02Celica was I believe about $30,with added fees it was $430.Imagine paying these fees on a Navigator,motorhome,Lexus for the wife,a couple of motorcycles,a boat,etc.Is it any wonder we had a revolt?


Whoops! Almost forgot fee for biannual smog checks!
