$381 + $50 smog on a 2001 F350 SRW to register this year :M oh but I donโ€™t have to pay to register my TC, itโ€™s like going to Oregon and paying $150 for an oil change and but not having to pay sales tax!



The time is coming soon when I am so outta California.

What are you guys seeing for registration in other states for a Similar vehicle?

Your not the lone ranger - seems like more and more voters are fed up with with tax increases so the bureaucrats increase fees (which normally don't require vote). I just paid about $280 in Oregon to renew my registration for two years.

If that is your Jamboree then it is an RV not a TV.
Our 2016 Ram 3500 DRW should be about $176 for two years, only because Washington Country added a $30 a year road tax.
The 5er is $229.50 for two years.

$257 commercial weight fee is not bad if you ask me.
No need to pay it if you use truck as an RV.
I pay well over $800 for my truck in Las Vegas plus annual smog test.
NV doesn't recognize commercial/non commercial pickup use, but I can turn the plates in and avoid paying in winter months.

Annual registration on my 2011 Chevy 2500 is close to $150.
No smog test here in rural Utah.
I don't understand why people think no sales tax saves them money.
They need to collect taxes from somewhere.

There is no weight listed on my registration.

$10 annual registration for my truck camper.

CA taxes are choking people to death.
