You should have just brought it along when you picked up the Marauder and given it to me:D


I'd love to have another fox but I have no room for it. The 1.5 car garage is spoken for.....

It varies state to state but you should be able to drop the insurance on an inoperable vehicle. You should just be able to cancel the registration and then the insurance.

Yeah that's exactly how you do it in NYS...but then you have to go to DMV, call your provider afterwards, surrender your plates, I guess you could have them stored in that case, but you're gonna pay again to renew the registration, have to re-instate the insurace before that, blah blah. :flame: At least pretty much any provider will email you cards to print out so that speeds it up a lot.
