State Farm Commercial Policy, 5,000 miles a year, 100,000/300,000/50,000 insurance coverage no comp, no collision, no under/uninsured full tort: $109 PER YEAR

PA Title fee $22.50

Tax on $1500 purchase price: $90

Registration Fee (Class 7 17,000 Registered Weight): $288.00

Out the door with plates for $400.50

A&M Notary in Frackville blew through the paperwork in like 10 minutes.

SO far I have less than $2800 total costs (including the first tank of diesel). Thats from Auction to Deuce in front of my house today.

NOT A BAD DEAL!!!

Thanks for the info! state farm came thru for me too. They are a good company

But quick question... To register and get plates do you need the tittle? I would love to get mine legal but Colemans is still waitin on the state to send them the tittle so we can transfer it to me

New York State, Historical...

Insurance $65

Annual registration $55

Total $120

Can't use it for hauling per the state, and cannot travel more than 3000 miles per year per insurance.

Even so, it is a decent way to go.

From what I understand a vehicle in PA *NEEDS* a PA title. Without a PA title you cannot register a vehicle.

I have my 42GPW on historical plates. I might just switch back to regular tags simply because I like to drive it (a convertible AND a machine gun mount WITH a rifle rack!) and the historical tags severely limit that.

I pay MORE for historical insurance on my 42GPW than I do on the Deuce. I fear that any accident that is not SPECIFICALLY part of an 'approved event' would be a biatch to get them to pay. So a trip to the local steak house may not be covered becuase there is no 'event' there.

You ARE doing well.
I paid $288 for a class 6 registration in PA.
Might have been a class 6, the MV-1 only lists the requested registered gross weight as 17000.

It would have cost almost $100 more to get the weight up to the full 18,500.. I'll never need it so thats $100 in my pocket.
