Considering 5er to A diesel. Have some questions regarding insurance and registration. Since we are Cali residents, kinda of hoping to hear from fellow A owners.
But we have no idea what the yearly registration/insurance costs are related to such a rig. Is there a weight fee? At a certain value do we get hit with a personal property tax? Is the yearly insurance like a vehicle (ie: every six month policy?) or with our 5er we pay yearly...
There's quite a few nice used units available...
No personal property tax.
No weight fee.
Insurance and licensing is based on valuation.
We pay Progressive once a year.
Sales tax depends on the County rate at point of sale.
So, lower purchase price saves you annual fee money. But as mentioned above, all these costs pale in comparison to historical rates of annual depreciation in value.
