Tech fee 1.00

The "Gov" and "Supl Gov Svcs Tax" are deductible as personal property taxes on Fed income tax.

Both here and in CO, the tax portion is depreciated - it goes down every year until it reaches a minimum and then stays there. I don't recall what the time period is.
My son just got his drivers license a couple of months ago and last week my parents decided to give him one of their old cars as a gift for free. I put the car in my name for insurance purposes. I went to a tags place and paid $139 total to get the car in my name and registered for the first year, reusing my parent's old license plate (we only have rear plates in PA). I did not save the receipt so I don't know the break down of what the fees were.

Once you own a car, the annual fee to renew registration is $43, regardless of the age, mileage or value of the car.
