    AT>    
    AT> I've been reading about South Dakota and based on what I understand, out   
    AT> of state people are allowed to register vehicles there even without   
    AT> having any residence in the state, just to help them save money.   
    AT>    
    AT> I don't think I'll do it for myself, but maybe I'll do it for my dad.   
    AT> His car has 260,000 miles on it and the Chevy dealership can never clear   
    AT> the light.   
    AT>    
      
   I forgot... Florida has a similar thing.  Some people drive down every fall to   
   Florida from some other northern place... Snow Birds... Florida will let you   
   register a car and leave it there if you are a Snow Bird... Even Canadians can   
   do this.  This way you can fly down and you have a car there waiting for you.   
      
    AT>    
    AT> That sounds good, but I'm a cheapskate and I just go to AutoZone and use   
    AT> theirs to do it. I know what you mean, it works on my Jeep too; I plug   
    AT> it in, get the code, and by the time I unplug it the light goes off   
    AT> (temporarily.)   
    AT>    
    AT> It's still a hassle though. I wish the state would stop requiring the   
    AT> check engine light to be part of the inspection. It's not making anyone   
    AT> any safer.   
    AT>    
      
   Just move out of NY... If you can't afford it start a Fans Only site.
