sure not that way in Tennessee - every time sold -- unless sold to for
resale, tax is colleted
By new car for 30 thousand pay tax on 30 thousand, trade it off next year
and new buyer gets it for 20 thousand he/she will pay tax on 20 thousand,
and again and again every time auto is sold,
I sold a truck that I owned to company I own and company had to pay tax
on it. -- should I decide to purchase it back I will pay tax.
"sales tax is what I am referring to"
Sales tax on auto / trucks is collected when you purchase tags...
Our sales tax is broken down as percentage to state and percentage to
county, there is a limit on how much tax per sale county can collect
