Mommie dearest signed title over to me for the sum of $1.00. Trenton wrote me a letter and decided the market value of my car and requested I submit the proper tax. I therefore, wrote them an letter with a copy of the purchase contract with my name and xeroxed licenses of myself and mommie dearest; to prove it was just a transfer of title and their bought it. There is no way in hell I was going to repay sales tax on my own car. What annoyed me was way right does the state have (if, let's say, some relative or otherwise decided to GIVE ME a CAR for the legal transfer sum of $1.00), to tell you the market value of the car and attempt to get you to pay appropriate sales tax on it.
