Finally got my Florida Tag and title

[Sintorion]

After hours on end of research, multiple calls to DHSMV, 3 trips to the regional MV office, $166 ($40 of which will be refunded), and two months of time, I finally have my title and tag. My tag number ends in 000 which is the first one that this office has issued. Being a new process created a lot of challenges. I was lied to multiple times and continually ignored in what I assume was an attempt make me give up. Everyone I talked to tried to tell me that I either couldn't do it or that I was wasting my time. On my second MV visit after a half hour of conversation another customer even said to me "they really don't want to do what you are asking". I couldn't figure out if it was that they didn't want to help or simply didn't know what they were doing. In the end I was able to achieve what I was seeking and hopefully it will be easier for the next person.

Some interesting points about the Florida tag and title -
1. Registration doesn't expire. I guess this is similar to the trailer tag that they don't expire
2. Title has no exclusions. It looks no different than the title for my truck or MDX. It contains all the information as any other title.
3. Registration includes the restrictions about use and appearance. The registration which is standard includes along with car seat requirements and insurance also includes the restrictions.
4. Tag state "restricted use only". It actually looks like government tag.

I know this isn't a full unrestricted title and registration, but for what I am using it for, it works for me.

Thanks for your concern and appreciate the opportunity to educate you on the process that the state of Florida has taken to create a method to legally title and register former military vehicles. I am glad you didn't just see this thread and think that this posting was in some way a brag about a way to do something illegal. You see the state of Florida has established rules regarding the registration and titling of former military vehicles. You can find all the details here - http://www.flhsmv.gov/dmv/bulletins/2016/ta_rstl16-022.pdf This is exactly the process I have followed and it is 100% legal.
