Morning all.
Back before Sid's time the license tags for cars in Oklahoma was stupid expensive for new cars. I remember a guy in the club bought a brand new 930 and his tag title and tax added almost 6 grand to the car price. I heard a story that I have never seen verified that some reporter went to the state legislature and took a picture of the tags in the Senate and House parking lots. Many of the tags were "farm truck" on a sedan or commercial tags for some side business. Several members had out of state tags and other schemes to avoid the crazy tag prices. The reporter put the story together with information on all the members tags. The story was never published because they took up tag reform all of a sudden and the tags became very reasonable.
I suspect that is a BS story but it always sounded good.
