It is $25 for anything over 11 years old AND under $15,000. I have never 
bought a Spridget that did not qualify. They are telling me that it falls 
into the 15 to 20G category. $750 tax, plus $73 late payment penalty, plus 
$16 of interest, minus the $25 that I did pay. I am so glad I did not pick 
this up on Friday, it would have ruined my whole weekend. Still might, 
depending on what they say tomorrow. I have the bank copy of my cancelled 
check and I have asked Crash if he can get me a bill of sale, since I did 
not bother with one since I had transferred the title before I ever saw the 
car; flew out there with the new plates. I am not going to go down quietly!
