Looks good Ewok -

curious, that doesn't look like WA registration.

Yup, I'm technically a PA resident and I'm allowed to keep it registered in PA. I tried to get a WA registration but they wanted to charge me the difference in sales tax that I paid, 6% in TX and PA, 8.9% in WA. They wanted me to pay 2.9% extra, but they also told me that since I am a PA resident I can keep it registered in PA, just like my two cars are.

I'm just getting home from a trip to the Mountains. My wife wanted to go get some things from my son's apartment and I didn't want her to travel alone.

The sales tax is ridiculous in this state. Add 10% to everything. I felt really good buying my boat in Oregon and writing the check for the actual sales amount. Too bad that only lasted a couple of days until I transferred the title and paid 9.5% more.

Hey, do you ever get to Banks lake or crescent bar? I need to plan a trip east of the mountains in July. Can't decide which place to try.

You should use MT as your residence Ewok

I just took a nice boatride on coeur d'alene today, my first trip out in this area. It was pretty windy and a little rough, we were not planning to ride, just took the boat out of storage and wanted to make sure everything worked right, and it did. I live very close to liberty lake but haven't tried it yet. It's much smaller but probably not as rough. There is talk about doing a PNW + ID and MT ish reunion in this area later in the summer. I have to go away for work until early august so I was hoping enough people would want to do something on labor day weekend.

Only if I can get a Penn state liscence plate from MT

[Ewok]

I complained about the sales tax too until I realized they don't have state income tax in WA. They have income tax in PA but if you work outside the state and don't earn income there you don't pay, win-win for me!

vanity plates and I'm sure its available in Montana.

No sales tax and you can permanently tag rv's trailers and boats in MT. $80.00 for life I think ???????

Sorry to hear that, Five. Hope all is well and he feels better now...

Everything ok with your boy Five?

Hope your boy is o.k. Five.

Hope everything is ok.

Thanks guys! My son is fine. As a lot of you know, we live in the country and with that comes some inherent risk...

Like ticks in your ear canal! UGH, I spent 2 hours trying to get it and got worried about puncturing his ear drum so I took him to the ED.
Doctor fought him 3 times before we had to finally sedate him to dig it out... Got it though!
