So im moving to another state in 3 weeks and it seems i maybe hauling 2 cars instead of the one i planned on. Both have ms tags one is antique (forever tag) and the other just normal although its also an antique vehicle. It would be nice to not worry about the one with the antique tag but i feel i should at some point break down and get a new tag in the state ill be in? Any ideas how long i could press that? I know its kinda wrong but growing up knowing friends who had land in arkansas they always titled their cars there because it was cheaper yet lived in mississippi and idk if they ever got hassled but im not exactly moving to a neighboring state either. Also ms no longer requires inspection stickers, would i have to get one for each car when i move or because they are still ms tagged and titled no worries?
Even if other people do it, keeping a car tagged in another state isn't kinda wrong, it is wrong. It would help to know what state you're moving to...they may have similar requirements for collector car tags and inspections.
In reply to stuart in mn:
Yeah i knew it wasnt the right thing to do mainly looking how long can i leave it be until I need a new tag. Going to oregon
Seems like most states give 6 weeks max to get a car registered in-state, from my previous experiences.

They won't let you pump your own gas there. Lot of good microbrew beer though, so there is that.
In reply to Toebra:
Yeah ive been ignoring that fact...do i have to tip the guy or something? Really wouldnt want to because gas is already higher there

What kind of bovine E36 M3 is that??? Did the citzens of Oregon even get a say in that bit communism before it was made into law?
You can pump your own gas here if it's an antique, special interest vehicle, or motorcycle. It's also nothing to get butt hurt about, not sure what all the animosity is about. I have never tipped a gas station jockey before and I have lived in Oregon for the vast majority of my life.
I take it you're moving to the Portland area? I mean, I can't imagine anyone would willingly move to Medford and those are the only two cities in Oregon that have emissions testing.

Do they require emissions testing on cars with antique plates? Maryland doesn't and also doesn't require a safety inspection.
In reply to Burrito:
Really now? So if i roll up with my antique or "special interest" vehicle i can tell the fuel pumper to ef off? Nice. And yeah to the portland area
In reply to Hal:
From what i understand yea unles its older than 1975. Guess i shoud do some more reading, while it MIGHT could get an inspection sticker idk how easily it would pass the smog test
What's the problem with letting someone else pump the gas? Since moving to Jersey, I've enjoyed staying in the car when the weather is nasty out.
In reply to Mitchell:
Because NO ONE on this earth is allowed to touch my cars with a wrench so of course i don't trust some fuel jockey to put premium in my clackety old volvo cause if he doesnt...kaboom. I mean i dont have much of an option but not going to be happy about it.
