I don't feel bad that I didn't opt for a boat but a kayak instead.
At first it was the fuel issue, but now with the state's aggressive tax & fee system (tax and fee us to death, and then tax our cold dead bodies on top of that!) it now makes me feel like I made a smart choice. (That is , smart for me.) I do feel your pain, since we as a state are paying more for the previledge you pay for more state hacks. I wouldn't be as bitter if the fees we pay actually went where they are supposed to, but I guess I'm just naive to think the state would actually do ANYTHING the way it was supposed to be done?

I,ve tried contacting a couple of reps and they got right back to me,Tried Sen. O,Leary and never got a response.
Tried the little leader in the big chair and no response.
Think about it from 8 dollars per thousand lbs to 20 dollars per thousand lbs.
That's 250% no mater how you look at it.

Its been $20.00 for every thousand pounds now for awhile hasn't it been. And besides, you still probably are not registering the trailer for the maximum GVWR of the trailer, which is what your suppose to register it for. If you under register weight rating wise and have a problem of some sort it could spell trouble. But that is hardly ever checked anyways.

you guys with the commerical plates and running a business definetly need dot inspecptions only if truck and trailer are over 10,000lbs. Am in the landscaping business and was inforned today that I no longer use spouted gas cans. Must be metal or spout retracts inside container. thank you mr patrick!

Checked trailer GVWR is just under 4000 so $20 x 4 = new drapes for Deval...

still....$80 TAX for a trailer that I might take back and forth to the ramp maybe 20 times over less than 6 months of the year just seems excessive.
