J> Gee! California is beginning to sound a lot like Massachusetts :O

Do you remember growing up in Maryland when vehicle registrations were around
$25 per year?  At that time it was impossible to consider it being the price it
is now.  Thanks to the dynamic-duo of Owe'Malley and Wes Moore, both majorly
jacked all taxes in MD on everything even after inheriting a tax suplus from
Internet company sales taxes.

I just paid $450 for (1) year registration for (2) cars and (1) motorcycle.
All have more than doubled just in the past two years.  And I no longer
classify as a "historic vehicle" on a 20+ year old vehicle - so I pay full
price again.

Owe'Malley came up with what I call the "fat tax" where they charge heavier
cars more for registration vs small cars.  My Charger gets the "fat tax" and my
registration is almost $200 per year.  And as a bonus, I have to renew my
emmissions this month too, another $25 for nothing.

This state is a political disaster run by crooks.
