1. It costs little to live here compared to Up Nawth, and land is cheap too.
2. Nice inside, metal roof = lower taxes!
3. As long as they think "old" = "POS" they won't tax my OLD vehicles much, no matter how refurbished!
"1951 Motorcycle Antique tag 10.00 SC 600.00 tax plus tag"
Huh? Must be a county thing. I'd buy some acreage in another county and get a mail box if I was getting pounded that hard. Sumter is reasonable.
Might be time to write your local papers?
"This state keeps unsafe cars on the road. "
As a mechanic and resident for over 20 years, including when they still had inspection, I disagree. The tax on old junkers makes no difference, nor does ditching the expensive, time-wasting, annoying inspection bureaucracy (which cost dealers so much in labor to do inspections they helped get rid of them!).
