Purchased car in Phoenix - Need to register in Texas.. Help!

Uh, yeah.. maybe an hour's worth? LOL

Uh, yeah ever heard of an airplane?

how does it take that long to drive from LA to Texas? I made the trip in 26 hours and that was going out of the way to Las Vegas and stopping for 2 hours up there.

Yeah, 20 hours or so. I could make the run if I HAD to, but I'm just not much of a marathon driver and don't wanna burn up valuable vacation time just to register a car, if I can avoid it.

And remember I have to turn around and go BACK to work so it'd be alot of driving just to get the car inspected and registered. If it comes to that, so be it, but if there's a way around it then hell yes.

Oh damn didn't think about inspection too. That sucks.

Register that fucker in Oklahoma, they don't do state inspections any more and insurance is cheaper. Taxes are higher up there though.

Mail the shit to someone here in Texas and have them register it here. It does not have to be you that registers it, they dont ask for ID or anything....

The vehicle has to be present. He has to get a VI-30A "green slip" to verify the VIN of any vehicle purchased out of State, plus they'll inspect it at the same time.

Yeah. You can't tranfer a title without passing a Texas inspection first. They hand you the "greensheet" with your inspection receipt. It's a $1 fee. That's $40.50 + $50. or so for the Texas tags.

Find someone who does inspections to write up an inspection report using your VIN and info, have someone in Texas go register it, and mail you the plates and reg. sticker.

that's what I would try to do... surely you can find someone who'll make it happen for a few hundred bucks

Fuck it. If the cheese factory would pay me to drive it back for inspection and registration, I'd drive my car back every time.
