don't be too happy?
Why not? I haven't heard of anyone in this Forum or at FFR not getting a number when they lined up early....well, except for one cos he was given the wrong information. Given the law of percentage, I stand a good chance of getting one and keep on being happy, too.
Every applicant pays the price of waiting and waiting whenever you visit DMV....a small price to pay for a lifetime of smog excemption, don't you think?BTW, ALL the DMVs had a hard time getting through to Sacramento on the first business day of 2006 because the lines to Sacto was down for 2 hours. That's why you too had to sit for 2 hours before the dice started rolling. It was like that everywhere, at least that was the claim by countless SPCN owners who experienced it. The bottom line and most important thing was, you GOT a number.
Sorry to hear about the slowness in getting your title and plates. But I thought you get the plates once you complete the entire process (CHP, BAR, B&L) and return all the paperwork to DMV, at that time, they hand you the plates and the title will follow in the mail? At least, with the people I know, their experience had been that they got their plates on their final visit to DMV.
