I had to basically sell it for scrap and buy a Honda Civic hatchback that my wife drove...talk about hurt.

BTW...I lived in Connecticut at the time and understand high taxes. But we have to pay for the things we need...good schools, good defence, good roads and good police protection. Taxes are the price we pay to live in a civilized socitety.
Amen to that my friend. Except, here in Massachusetts; we have pot hole filled streets and highways, bridges that are ready to collapse, terrible schools where a kid is as likely to get shot as to get a diploma, and don't hold your breath if you must dial 911. What we have is welfare for illegal aliens, cars and cell phones for welfare recipients, in state tuition for illegal aliens, (oh, by the way, Connecticut residents don't get that, they pay full pop at our schools). I will end the political end of this by quoting someone, "show me a young conservative and I will show you someone without a heart. Show me an old liberal, and I will show you someone without a brain". I intend on keeping my Camaro forever. I've already served my time of updating and paying the taxes. I never said that taxes were uneccessary, what I said is that too much is too much. I am out of this thread, please buy your next car here and register it here because we need the taxes.
