Hello All,
Hey, I second that question: What don't I know?
(Well, lots. But that's beside the point!)
Here's the latest from my desk:
It ain't over yet, but...
Yesterday, I received by mail the proposed decision regarding the cancellation of my title and registration be the WisDOT. It is a ruling in my favor, ie: the cancellation is reversed.
Essentially, the DOT failed to meet the burden of proof that my truck does not meet FMVSS requirements.
Bear in mind that I, and the WisDOT, now have 15 days within which to present our objections and briefs, prior to the administrator of the Department of Administration, Division of Hearings and Appeals making a final decision. Even after that, WisDOT can appeal the ruling to a higher court. Nonetheless, a decidedly positive step, at this stage.
I hope to have a link to the court's entire letter posted to our website within a couple days: http://www.wisconsin-pinzgauers.org/
In an interesting sidelight: my insurance agent called today, to say that Progressive has rejected my policy because my VIN is incorrect. It is consistent with the truck. But according to my agent, Progressive provides their client's VINs to the DOT and (I'm guessing) my VIN is not listed by the DOT as OK. I'll meet with her next Tuesday and deliver copies of the court's letter. Interesting, eh?
I shall carry on, and I'll keep you posted.
