For many years buyers of expensive RVs registered them in Montana to avoid very expensive fees in their home states. I was honest and bought an RV in Fla. I was charged 4% sales tax on $125K. When I got home to Georgia and went to register it I found out the 4% never leaves Fla and I had to pay an additional 7% sales tax. So 11% tax came out of my pocket! Learned never to buy out of state.
That's more of a Florida thing. The only way to avoid it is to have the vehicle shipped home.

I don't think it's an issue with Iowa.

Yup, that must be a Florida thing. I've purchased new and pre-owned vehicles in Nebraska a few times now, and only paid South Dakota's 3% sales tax when registering them here. Never paid Nebraska any taxes.

Florida has a special rule for tow behind campers and trailers for sales to Georgia residents, 4%.

https://floridarevenue.com/taxes/tips/Documents/TIP_25A01-01.pdf

As you can also see for that link, purchasing a Mustang in Florida as a Georgia resident results in "None" as the Florida sales tax.

PS - I purchased my Dark Horse from out of state. I am currently a Georgia resident (see Location to the left). I paid only the Georgia TAVT.

It is kind of silly to have a "never purchase out of state" rule. Just do your research ahead of time. The internet is great for this sort of thing.

My Dark Horse was a smoking deal, and there was nothing like it anywhere else at the time. Buying locally would have cost me a lot more.

Ditto. No stock locally on new cars, and the only used one was overpriced. I bought my car out of Ohio (I'm in NC).
