    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    I have established a business in Vermont, and the paper work is in to the Vermont DMV to have the M998 to be registered to the business, with a Vermont address on the registration. My name and address will not be on the registration. Sure, they can still cite me, arrest me, or impound the...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Success! Tag arrived and took it for our first real drive. So almost a six week process start to finish.

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Registering in my home state of Florida - Total FAIL, where the FL DMV marked up the title I got from the seller as invalid due to bureaucrats running amuck - not FL law. Registering in Vermont - win if you are patient. I am on the 6th week waiting for a plate. Getting a clean Vermont Title -...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    I received a check in the mail from the DMV refunding the Title Fee I paid, and the Warranty Fee, whatever that is. So that confirms that they would not give me the title even though I requested it and I sent in the VIN verification form but from Florida. I don't blame them for not accepting and...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    I call the Vermont DMV and I will post this information for those following my saga. They stated I will NOT be receiving a traditional title. Vermont does not issue titles for vehicles older than 2008. Instead, your registration acts as your title. When you sell the older vehicle, you give the...

    Thank you for the link. Shows: Active Registration Oh rats - no way I can get it up there for an inspection. I will call them and see what they say. A clean title is what I need.

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    When I saw it was a sticker for a plate I thought it was an error, but on the front of the envelop that the sticker and registration came in, it was pre-printed and stated: That is just crazy :confused: Maybe they have to wait for the convicts to make one? :p

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Gosh, I hope that is not the case. I cannot use that title that the FL DMV defaced to sell the M998 to anyone else. At least not according to the Florida DMV. If that is the case, I would pay the original seller when he gets back from deployment to get a duplicate title and just sign it and...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Update as of Friday. Very strange. Today I received a sticker for a license plate, with what appears to be a registration. No Title, no License Plate to put the sticker on. Very wierd, at least to me. All the states I ever registered a car the plate came with the sticker on it and matching...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Another status update. This is very strange. Vermont DMV mailed me back the original out-of-state title from the seller and I signed and Florida "invalidated" with a handwritten note that read: They kept all the other paperwork I sent them, including the bill of sale, the signed odometer...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Well, one positive thing happened - my check was cashed for the sales tax, titles and fees from that fine New England state that is still free loving. Maybe I have a shot at a clean title! :):):):):):):):):)

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Permit me to make one post with a huge thank you to the forum members that messaged me with generious offers to help and great advice to help my situation. I thank you all for that! Terrific group of members! I will not make any further posts until I have an update. No point. I am in the...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    ARGH! I just mailed it. Figures, my luck. Maybe they will take pity on me and just give me give me a clean title. Hard to believe they would turn down a juicy sales tax check. I don't care about plates anymore. If not, I guess I have to wait for them to return my screwed up title Florida ruined...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    One of the great things of Florida is there are no vehicle inspections whatsoever. Yeah, we have all these construction vehicles that dump their 20 foot step ladders across two lanes of interstate traffic, and kill a few people - but inspections won't help that. Florida state agencies used to...

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    When I went to the second DMV (state) office of the day, and waited an hour for the head beurocrat to come out to exert his authority, we asked if we could have it treated as a Antique Military Vehicle. He asked if we had any pictures of it and we showed him one on our phone. He then stated...

    FMV - Fair Market Value? I don't understand.

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Actually, she found and bought this for me as a retirement gift. So how can I complain? I just should have not brought her to the DMV and I could have gone postal! She is a keeper!

    I did not want to mention my plan B as I don't want to be banned, but I am trying what they do myself. Finger's crossed.

    Wife wants me to do the unthinkable due to the Florida DMV debacle!

    Yes, the seller just signed the title and left everything else empty so if he did that for me I would be golden. I forgot to mention that the seller was being deployed overseas for some months. He will not be reachable. But yes, that is a possibility and I will pay him for his time and cost...
