Think it goes without saying but thanks for the little updates here and there. The little you can share is exciting and also comforting for those following on.

Also, happy to send a bottle of two if you can squeeze mine to the front of the line... ;)

Seriously though, thanks!

Tax Consequences of Buying an Out-Of-State Vehicle​

Because of websites like Cars.com and Auotrader.com, “window shopping” online is common for people who are eagerly trying to find the new or used car they want at the right price. In some cases, finding the right car can lead you to a dealer that is out of state. Depending on where you live and where the dealer is located, the way taxes are calculated and collected can be complicated.
When you buy a car, regardless of what state, the dealer collects the tax and remits it to the tax agency on your behalf to ease the burden of trying to do so yourself. This is an important convenience since your local DMV will not allow you to register your car without a bill of sale showing your sales tax was paid or a proof of exemption when one applies.
This gets complicated when you purchase a vehicle out of state. Some states have reciprocal tax relationships, meaning they provide credits to each other whenever their residents pay sales tax across state lines. For example, Arizona has reciprocal tax agreements with Oregon, Virginia, Indiana, and California so if a California resident buys a car in Arizona, they may be exempt from paying the sales tax in Arizona, though they have to pay it in California. Usually this tax relationship is listed on the DMV site, so if you are considering purchasing a vehicle across state lines, make sure to check it first. This is true if you visit a non-reciprocal state. You may be able to avoid paying sales tax in that state if you give the dealer proof that you intend to register your car in your home state, such as your driver's license.
Because U.S. state tax laws vary so much, there are many individual circumstances that buyers should take into account when buying a car in another state. Most states provide tax credits for trade-ins — that is when you give your old car to a dealer to cover part of the cost of a new car. However, California, Michigan, Oklahoma, Virginia and District of Columbia don't do this. Also, some states, such as California, charge use fees when you bring in a car from out-of-state, even if you've already paid the sales tax on the vehicle. And in Oklahoma, you must pay an excise tax on the car's value when you register it. Some states charge annual excise fees for cars or a fee whenever you renew your registration. These fees are in addition to the sales tax you must pay.
Vehicle sales taxes are usually a significant part of the total cost of the vehicle, so you may try to avoid paying them. The easiest way to do this is to buy a car in a state with no sales taxes and register the car there: Montana, Alaska, Delaware, and New Hampshire. Unfortunately, unless you register the vehicle in the sales-tax-free state, you still have to pay the sales tax when you register the car in your home state. You can also mitigate taxes by registering a car in a state with lower tax rates. For instance, on vehicle leases, states like Maryland and Texas still calculate tax on the vehicle selling price instead of the depreciation price making it more expensive to lease.
As you can imagine, this is a complex situation for dealerships to manage. This is especially the case for dealers that are on state borders as doing business across state lines expands their potential customer base. All that being said, most quoting or point of sale tools used by dealers are not up to the task of managing these reciprocal rules, and as a result, dealers are forced to work out these scenarios for themselves which can be costly for both you and the dealer.

It has been my experience at every dealership I have worked for that the dealerships have access to and use the forms and spreadsheets created for this by their state dmv.
 
Hi MXSnow. Are you saying production is moving as anticipated? We've had 2 cab and chassis start to move, then go into JS (storage - I assume due to chip shortage). All presold D1s seem to be next and they are all 3500 trucks. Then, everything else is D and they keep changing estimated ship dates. Can you give us some insight? ;-)

Andrea is about the most reliable source on production here, given the last 5-10 pages. A lot of speculation and rampant, dare I say, nonsense. Little value in this thead lately. Can I call for people to stop posting, "what is going on, will my truck every deliver, omg?!?!?" posts and more meaningful stuff? We all expected delays in early production, which is basically where we are now. Give it a couple weeks, and things will likely be in full swing. Most trucks ordered in May/June will be done in over the next 30 days, is my half-ass guess. Otherwise, chill out.

What is a C and D equipment group? even less chip-related options? Would be helpful is Ram updated their website :) Andrea, any knowledge if Limiteds are impacted by this seemingly chip-related shortage as much or moving forward generally as expected? A post or two ago, you mentioned all of your orders moving forward were 3500's, but curious what trim's they are.

Here is what I wrote as an update to my customers' order status as of yesterday. I think this will help....

Quick update. Your vehicle is in D status. Interestingly, and I'm guessing it is because of chips, our 22 chassis are at the top of the list and have been shipped to storage. 3500 Big Horns are in D1 (in line for production) but estimated ship dates have been moved to end of August. 3500 Laramie Longhorns and Limiteds are next in D status with no estimated dates, then 1500 TRX, 2500 Laramie and Limited, then assorted. I'll give you another update soon.

As for the "C" and "D" packages, it is anyone's guess. They have not told us what it includes, there is no price and no info when you click the link. Sorry. You know I will let you all know as I do!

Why are you wasting this guys time when you have 0 intention of buying his truck and already know its not a 2022? If you are that concerned with how he has it listed then simply state "Hey, I don't believe 2022s have been delivered to dealers, can you confirm what year your truck is?" It seems like you are on a mission to prove he does not have a 2022 when all you have to do is ask for clarification.
