So when the dealer pays you for your car, do they pay sales tax like you would if you had purchased from them? Just curious.
I imagine this is state specific, but highly doubt a dealer would pay sales tax on what is essentially a wholesale purchase. This is one of the perks of being a dealer, at least in PA.

I doubt that the dealer pays sales tax, the person who purchases the car from the dealer certainly pays sales tax. And if I sold to an individual, they would have to pay sales tax during the registration process.

I am sure you are right. As I think about it more, it is a purchase for resale and probably just a Resale License needed.
