My vehicle is older and comes in at around $200.00. The 'rona and WFH is a big bonus with extending the life of the vehicle and lower property tax.
If I game this out, and with the lack of new car sales, and the revenue those sales generate in yearly property taxes, we should all expect a large increase in county property taxes to correct the imbalance. |

People hated the car tax so much Gilmore got elected and managed to.get it reduced pretty well. New car prices are such that the car tax as an annual item is insane,.but no locality is giving it without the ability to collect local income tax

Don't forget about the "Highway Use Fee" when you renew your tags either.

Tax wise, it's still cheaper to live in VA than in MD or DC. When you figure the difference in state income taxes (add in the county "piggy-back" tax for MD) and all the other taxes (gasoline, liquor, etc.) Virginia comes out a little better.
Not much, mind you. But a bit better. Virginia is a long way from being perfect. But in the DC metropolitan area, it's still the best place to live. |

And you can always take a small crowd of adults into Washingtoon, DC and take advantage of the lower liquor prices. |

And the best part is, you can't even get into the DMV in a reasonable amount of time to register a vehicle so you can have the yearly privilege of being screwed on the property taxes. I tried to schedule a visit last week after getting the emissions testing and inspections done, and the earliest date available, even if I was willing to drive an hour each way, was Sept 16th. That is nuts.

My income tax bill in VA is slightly lower, my car tax bill is much higher, and my property taxes are much, much higher in VA. VA does have lower utility and insurance costs, which offsets the higher taxes somewhat. Also, Maryland doesn't have a meals tax. |

Our state income tax is lower than MD, and we have no "piggy back" tax added to that (60% in Frederick County, MD). We also have no meals tax outside of incorporated towns. As an aside, if you're a homeowner, you might check out the rates for home insurance with Northern Neck Insurance. They sell only in VA, so your rates don't get affected by shit like hurricanes in FLA. My rate went from over $800/year with Travelers to about $400 with Northern Neck. I'm not a salesman, and get nothing for my recommendation. |

Just got my tax bill in the mail for the F250 I bought June 19th. $750. Not sure if that's for the half year I'll own it this year or for a year's worth of taxes. Just looked at the amount and quickly laid it down on the table to catch my breath. Trucks seem to depreciate way slower than cars so I guess I'll be paying these high bills for several years.

The way campbell county does tax is anything owned after Jan 1st of the year is taxed next year. I will look forward to paying the cheap tax on my wife's car we traded in mid Jan and look forward to the raping next year on her van we bought. Also campbell is very high on personal property tax and only allows 1 payment of course at christmas time. |

My county pro-rates it. Buy a vehicle in July, and you'll get a tax bill in August for the remaining 6-months worth. The rate also varies by county. Live in the blue counties, and you get raped more. My brand new 2016 Ram 3500 was less than $650 for the first full year. I'm keeping my head down. Somehow, I haven't been billed for my new F350 for the past 3 years.

Works out good, because whatever I get back in federal taxes goes into my savings for a couple months before going to the county. |

Yea, the other county and local city I believe do 2 payments a year, May and dec on personal property tax and the city allows 4 payments for real estate. |

Because of sales (7%) and meals tax. Eating out is 11%. I do love getting the car tax this time of year and it being due by around Christmas. It's like a gift to the county. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Wait until the national mileage tax hits. FJB. We already have a surcharge to register smaller cars that get better mileage. Got pinged by it on my 2015 Cruze. Still cheaper than driving my Tahoe around town for groceries though. |
