It WAS anything under $1000 was exempt, now it is under $6000. But clearly hey are now valuing things ridiculously because our "96 toyota wagon, which we just sold for $600 ONLY because there are NO station wagons to be had, they just valued at $3900!!!<br>

We got a tax bill--the first in 2 or 3 years--for a 1999 Toyota Corolla. It only amounts to around $200 but I'm not sure how I feel about suddenly paying taxes on a nearly 13-year-old car. Didn't there used to be a ten-year cutoff of something?<br>

I just got the bill for our car tax - they are valuing our<br>
1996 Honda Civic DX Coupe at $4,750!? I looked up<br>
the Blue Book value.? Considering it in "Fair" condition<br>
based on their quiz, it should be worth $1,600.? (It has<br>
205,000 miles on it).? Even if it were "Excellent", the<br>
value would only be $2,435 ($2,135 for "Good").<br>
<br>
Does anyone know who I could call to try to challenge<br>
this assessment??<br>
<br>
Blessings,<br><br>
