What about Montana?

Montana requires, as I understand, you to set up an LLC, and the cheapest service appears to be around $850. South Dakota appears to offer a similar option for around $500. Vermont allows for a dealer to appraise the car, but that requires bringing it to Vermont. At the end of the day, I want to register in DC, and pay the tax to the city I live in, but not if it's the crazy figure I've been given.
