Transporting a new purchase

[Gardner Yeaw]

I was wondering how people deal with getting a new purchased Bird
home. If I were to go half way across the country to look at one, I
would rather pay up and drive it home than go to the expense and time
of another round trip. Naturally I couldn't get it licenced and
registered in my home state, New Jersey, without being there, so what
method of temporary licencing is available? Do you obtain it from the
resident state or the purchase state? I expect it varies from state to
state, but today I am interested in Texas. I don't have a friend with
dealer plates, and playing with the law isn't in my plan, so a
legitimite solution is what I am looking for?

Any experiences out there?
