The worst part is Vermont made me pay $900 sales tax on a truck I first leased in 2016 and then bought out at lease end in 2019 in North Carolina (had a ton of equity).
That means I've now paid sales tax three times on one truck. In addition to property taxes on it. That's borderline fucking criminal.

Had this happen to my wife. She bought a new car in NH while she lived there some ten years later we come to VT and they wanted thousands in taxes as she bought it new that's the value they used. Well we found a loophole she just sold it to me for nothing and I paid no tax as family transfers are exempt. There is a form for it as well.

Ugh sorry it was actually the lady at the DMV who told me about it go figure. But at least in the future it's something to consider especially if you give a car to your kid or whatever. Immediate family and that includes parents as well. Edit there is also a form you can still use to get some of it back if you can prove you paid tax in another state. That didn't work for us as NH has no tax but of course to make up for it a new car reg is insanely expensive for the first few years. They get ya anyway they can. Bloodsucking bastards really.

Yeah, the $900 was based on what was left of the 6% in tax that VT charges - essentially it's after they subtracted what I paid in NC. But that was based on my current estimated value, not new price or even my end of lease buyout price. Strange.
