UT Taxes
1) Here is the breakdown for the County of St. George:

UT Registration Fees for 1986 PT38 with DD
1.5% Property Tax: =$892.50/yr (Will not drop much, as is already near
bottom of depreciation table.

40,000lb Weight fee: $290/yr

Registration: $20 first year, then $9/yr

Diesel Fee: None in Washington County

= $1191/yr Registration

2) George, I think your friend with the bus conversion pays less
because the intial MSRP may have been lower.He may not have to pay the
40,000 lb weight fee either.

3) LLC: I'll look at the website, my initial reaction is "not really".
If I was fulltiming I would feel "safer" doing it. It seems obvious
that I am only doing it to save taxes, which I don't have a problem
doing (I took out of state delivery on our Dutch Star while living in
CA), but I don't want to get penalized later.

4) Taxes on Duramax + Fifth wheel: I'll call today and find out. I
have an '01 Tacoma 4x4 that I will sell before getting the Chevy. The
value of the Chevy will be approx $8,000 more, so I don't think the
registration will be greatly increased. I'll probably spend around
$20,000 for the fifth wheel so the tax basis is less and there is no
Weight Fee. I used to own a '94 Chevy 4x4 and it was so much more
comfy than the Toyota, that I am actually looking foweward to getting
another one. Toyota's seats leave a lot to be desired.

5) Thanks to all for your concern!! I have had 4 people email me,
interested in the rig. I would really like a "family" member to buy it
so I can keep track of it:-)

Steve, do you have any indication of original cost/value of your
Bluebird, other than the county assessors's statement of $300,000+
that you mentioned a couple of weeks ago? Maybe the assessor is
wrong. For comparison purposes, I have a 1987 Country Coach that
listed at $148,000 new and is currently worth about $50,000. Granted,
I may be comparing apples and oranges, but over $300,000 seems
pretty high for 1986. It sure would be to your advantage if you could
knock a few $$$ off that original MSRP.
Good luck in your battle with the bureaucrats,

The MSRP was $370,000 for our 1987 PT38. My current registration shows a
list price of $321,145.

Well, it was a good idea while it lasted. '86-'87 was when Country
Camper changed their name to Country Coach because you can sell a
Coach for a lot more money than you can a Camper. After that they
raised their prices to keep up with the rest of the crowd (Bluebird,
Vogue, Foretravel, etc.). I'll go back to "lurk" mode.
