That time of year for me to renew my Auto Registrations or License Plates.
Just wondering what everyone else has to pay and how often?
In Michigan, I pay the following every year:
1982 BMW 320i = $47.00
2002 VW Jetta = $72.00
1993 Infiniti J30 = $134.00
1994 BMW 530i = $174.00
....plus $18.00 for my drivers' license.
$445.00 just for the privilege of driving....
You yanks have it so good that you DO NOT have a clue!
One car here in Australia would cost you $445.00 each year for resgistration even if it was 30 years old and was only worth $50.00.
AND registration fees are now indexed to the inflation rate so they will NEVER go down.
They will only go UP!
So there's a double kick in your arse.
Your car is worth less and less each year BUT your reg goes UP and UP!!
So those four cars would cost you $2,000.00 a year in Australia.
That doesn't include licence or insurance.
Oh and while we're at it how would you like to pay $8.00 a gallon for gas?
Move to the U.K. and find out.
So... what else would you like to bitch about?
The cost of a hot dog and a coke?
Or how about just shut-the-****-up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Of course I mean that in the nicest possible way!
