All I can say is CHECK what it will COST to register ALL your vehicles EVERY year including the RV in the wonderful state of Georgia. The newer your vehicles are the MORE$$ your plates will cost.
That ad valorem tax is for purchasing/title a vehicle. I've always said they way they charge for plates would prevent people from buying new vehicles. The way I understand it that new law just helps those buying a vehicle tax. The registration is STILL based on the "value" of the vehicles. That does not change.
I wanted to call Georgia my home real bad. UNTIL I found out the yearly plate registration cost is based on the VALUE of your vehicles. I had a MH, SUV, and the TOAD. :E is all I can say about that, it was in the thousands!
Yes it goes down over the years but IMHO I am NOT going to pay those type of fees to register my vehicles every year.
Check it out before you leap! :W
