I'm not surprised. This was one of the things I looked at when making my decision to move to NC. As you can see, the two states are at opposite ends of the list.

[bonnielisabeth]

Yes, we had a big shock when we moved here from NC for job reasons! You are definitely going in the right direction

Vermont is very lucky.

Seriously? For our two cars in Maryland, we pay around $800 a year.

WooHoo for me! I'm looking at moving from CA. So my costs should go DOWN. Yay!
