It is a fee that is charged you based on the value of your car. You pay it to get your tags. It is a tax, so is tax-deductible. Weird, isn't it? Different than Illinois, but it's been so long since I lived there, I don't remember how they do it there any more.

[jacquiz]

so you dont have to pay it EVERY year?

[Katiana]

Yes, you pay it every year. It gets lower as the car gets older.

We used to live in California and moved to Colorado about 9 months ago. We looked at homes from Colorado Springs up to Ft. Collins before settling on a small town called Castle Rock. It is located halfway between Colorado Springs and Denver....about a 20-30 minute drive to either large city. Castle Rock was voted the number one place in the nation to live by Family Circle magazine. It has a small town feel, but with all the amenities you could want. The people are really friendly, lots of hiking, biking, equestrian etc.

Of course, the last time I checked Douglas County had the highest median home price outside of the resort areas in the whole state . . . bring plenty of money with you.
