April of 2021. Yup, you read that right! $118 for one month.
Wife called local DMV, was told you can send a letter to the state to appeal it, however, good luck. DMV mentioned these, while on the phone with them. Said if you go out of state, some LEO's may not recognize them for smaller trailers. And, as others said, for "B" or similar plates, stay under 8000# gross weight. As well as some state/local LEO's. On the other hand, A good friend is a LEO, he's fed up with this whole increase also.
We're going Friday to get ST plates for the flat bed. I'm on the fence with the boat, as I'm trying to sell it.
