Sales tax question
If I'm a SD resident and purchase. A new vehicle in NC, which state's sales tax do I pay? I believe it's SD. What say you? Thanks in advance.

SD has no sales tax on vehicles you register there. They do however have an excise tax that was just raised from 3% to 4%. You will have to pay this to SD. Do not pay any sales tax to the state you purchase it in. I bought my 2014 Ram dually in Washington state last year and the dealer had NO idea! He tried to collect sales tax so I started walking out. He instead collected ONLY the temporary tag fee and I took care of the 3% excise tax with SD myself.
