Unless you spend consecutive 30 days in CA with car then it comes to CA with tax

Want lower taxes? Move to a state with them. Have to pay to play, and if one is ok with breaking the law then you’re rolling the dice. It’s your own business and have to face the consequences if/when that happens. Do what you want.

I’m sure this thread and common knowledge of this in other places will raise quite a few flags.

Is it you, the car, or both?
My residence is NH, with no sales or incomes taxes, there's an unearned (!?) income tax though.
Minimal yearly state and local registration fees.
If I keep a NH plated car at a rented property in CA, but I'm never there for more than 29 days in a row, am I technically in violation of a CA law or statute?

Not sure but I can say from personal experience when registering a car brought into the state if you write down it's been in the state longer than 21 days you pay a hefty fine

You’re not because NH is your permanent residence which you can prove if asked. I do the same in NY and GA with no issues. Had cars in NY with GA plates and license, and GA allows the smog test to be bypassed because the car was in NY which I verified in writing it was worked related. By the way CA can never verify as you could have stayed a night in Vegas and the clock starts all over again? My situation is legal in GA and NY no tricks you can’t carry two drivers licenses.

Can we set up a Montana Rennlist LLC for all members here to use?

In Rennlist's defense, you did come on a public internet discussion forum and willingly disclose that you were doing this. You can't really get upset when people discuss it and, as statistics would predict, some take issue with it. It's tax evasion, however small, and some people have a problem with it. And people tend to discuss things on discussion forums.

Have to agree.

And discussing the situation with the officer and inferring that he would agree with your tax situation could really get you into a lot of trouble, despite the fact that there was mention of shut the F up and all.

Wow.

Setting up a Montana LLC is tax evasion - call the whistle blower hotline - lawyers set up the LLC as do CPA's.

I drive with plenty of guys who have Montana plates - we raise money for several groups one being police officers and I assure you they don't care where an exotic car guys plates are from - they worry about going home at night protecting and serving the citizens - trust me what you think is a big deal is not in fact it's not anything.

You have to agree - based on what please share.

I am not a fan for other reasons but plenty of guys do it - for the life who made some guys around here the judge and jury.

Do it don't do it who cares wtf someone else does - trust me if it bothered you so much post your tax return and let's analyze ... who cares the POTUS won't even show his and you hold the jail cell key to a fellow car guy to the forum ... WOW!
Concur.

How many people speed, don't run a front plate, all the other bull****.

When you have 7 figure and higher tax bills, enough is enough. Most states are so poorly run if they were independent businesses they would be out of business.

Thanks - deleted it in part as I can't figure out why so many guys care what someone else does.

Guys with 10 figure incomes have dealer plates / Montana Alaska they seem fine with it when driving to their hangars.
