I don't disagree with your assessment on advocating for the hobby, I've been big on that for a long time. Regarding the surrender of a title from other states and use of out of state plates isn't as cut and dry as it might seem. Vacation homes, business interests, dual ownership and...

many states allow registrations of vehicles from other states. This is especially true with trailers and commercial vehicles. Vermont has purposefully legalized this in their state, and is 100% legal. There are no insurance or legal issues with it. Why do it, because some states have varying...

Stay tuned everybody we have some movement on this issue. regarding the above post. I totally understand, however we must force them to follow the law. simply allowing a bureaucrat to decide how its gonna be and not the published law serves no purpose. I am not doing anything that will...
