Alabama Tags

[Jerry Hall]

Alabamians will be getting new tags upon renewal starting in January. Two employees in the tag office let me pick out some for my renewals come May of 22.

They are safely put away in a desk until my renewal.

You're lucky to be allowed to do that.

We have to take the next one of the top of the box. So when I was waiting for a plate to come up, I had to buy the previous one, then I could buy the one I needed for my GTX. I had 2 sequential plates for a while. It took a while to track down the store that had the plates that I wanted.

Could you have your plate personalized?

 

[Mopar Hunter]

A friend of mine‘s great grandpa was thinking about getting this.

I kept my personalised plates "44O" and I still have "REDWGN"

I opted for generic serial plates that just get printed every day.... "GZP43" and GZP44"

Those are cool. My parents had a Toyota van, what model of Toyota is that?

1998 Hiace...4-cyl, 3.0 litre diesel.

Suits me perfectly for work. I don't need a new van.

You should be able to drive better, I moved the steering wheel to the left side.

I'll stick with the antique tags here. Pay once, good for life, no fees after ever.

Not even for yearly registration?

We in Virginia get to run year of manufacture plates on our collector cars. Register once and permanent.. Pretty cool, that back in the old days, a new plate was issued every year. The colors alternated with black on even number years and white on odd number years. But the numbers remained the same. I still have my Dad's old 1970 plates in case I ever get another 1970 car.

How about an Alaska tag?

That's awesome... How did you get past the censors?

I actually bought it at a souvenir shop in Alaska 4 years ago.

I was going to ask if it was a fake tag too.. But it looked legit enough to fool me or maybe I just don't know what an official tag looks like.

Same in Arkansas - one time fee for life. Just have annual property taxes and insurance to pay.

Nope. You pay for it initially and you're done for as long as that tag remains with the car with you as owner.

Ditto in TN. We're allowed to register any (not already in use) year-specific original tags as well.

That’s a great deal.

We don't have annual "personal property tax" on vehicles, either.
You pay sales tax when you apply for title/register and that's that for taxes.
