So. I bought My Redeye from Jake at Cummins (not in person) in December. I thought they were handling all of the California DMV paperwork and kept waiting for my plates. My Kentucky temporary plates expired 2-17. I recently found out the car, even though brand new, had to be smogged, verified, and some additional paperwork filled out. Turns out all Cummins did was send in the money. Finally got to the DMV today and registered the car. There were $940 in penalties. Turns out cars must be registered within 20 days of bringing the car into the state. It would have been nice if Cummins would have told me, but they probably are not knowledgeable of the requirements in all 50 states. My fault, I guess. Anyone in California, learn from this.

Montana thing is a good idea, I am in Florida, We did away with that emission stuff some years back, Attornies brought a class actionn against the state and it held up, MOVE is a good one, Half of California has moved here in the last 2 years, I have a Demon, I guess I wont be moving there anytime soon, !!!!!!!!!!!!!
