Fl registers the trucks by weight. Newer rams are getting classed as heavy trucks and go commercial rates. Not that cheap, about 3 times as much as a regular car.I sure am glad I'm in Florida also .

This is highly ignorant. Registration for my truck in Arizona for one year was over $1,100 when I first bought it. My second year was $1098. My 4 year old Honda Civic Type R was $349. I would love to have the cheaper registration.Yet another reason why people are leaving Calif. in droves.
I simply cannot wrap my head around these numbers just to put a vehicle on the road. The whole registration thing is unnecessary IMO and this is just straight up theft. Who has that kind of money just sitting around...it's like the haves and the have nots.When I moved from Ca to AZ back in 2004 I thought man it is going to be nice to not pay CA registrations fees. Turns out AZ is worse than CA. My initial registration on my 2021 Laramie was just a tick over $1000. I'm guessing next year it's going to be over $800.
what is your property tax?I simply cannot wrap my head around these numbers just to put a vehicle on the road. The whole registration thing is unnecessary IMO and this is just straight up theft. Who has that kind of money just sitting around...it's like the haves and the have nots.
Some dealers are registering the trucks with the rated total gross vehicle weight not with what the truck actually weigh . they did this to my 2015 but not my 2019. If you don't routinely carry mounted heavy equipment and use your truck only for personal use and its a 1500 you can go to a weigh station and get a certified weight if its under 5900 lbs go to the tag place and the will change it. I did this and it reduced my fee to around 78 dollars.Fl registers the trucks by weight. Newer rams are getting classed as heavy trucks and go commercial rates.
