Dealer never put TITLE in my name, am I stuck??

We haven't heard from the OP recently, but my biggest question is; without the title and registration, how is he purchasing a tag each year?
Seems to me that it has never been registered in his home state. I'm guessing if he does get the original title he will be faced with a lot of late fees and penatlies.
His best shot now is to forget the dealer and do a new title from a storage lien (in Oklahoma it's called a title 42) Cost is a few hundred dollars and takes about a month.
