I ran across Canada with 1989 Chev long box truck pulling a 15 foot camper also loaded with my CB750 and two bicycles.  I did have a few major repairs but the repairs were needed and the truck travel 10270 Km. Great vacation

stryboen Can you explain how they tax you, is it for running an older car?

Colorado used to have a similar law for pre-1980s cars. Then they just repealed it one day. That cost me my 1979 Fairmont station wagon, the most-useful car I ever owned. It had 450k miles on it then, heading for 500k, worked perfectly except for the air conditioner (couldn't find repair parts for its compressor!).
