it's like starting fresh......No back fees...none of that stuff. Maybe an inspection. But, mostly, not even that.

Was I misinformed from the horse's mouth? Or, did this truck stay in the system because of something about the "replacement tag"?

$750 in fees or not, you got a nice truck. Especially for the price.
it used to be they "dropped off" but they stopped doing that a while ago. they're keeping permanent record now, not sure when they switched. so unless you were told this like 10 years ago, yep you were misinformed...
