6/8 - Bought a new Honda Accord SE for $2,500 under factory-to-dealer invoice using a loss leader ad.
9/5 - Trip permit expires and I've had the license plates for about about 3 weeks.
Of course I'm too lazy to screw the license plates on and once you do that "new car" feeling/aura/vibe is gone.
Called the Oregon DMV, after the CSR and I have a good chuckle at my laziness she says I'd have to go into the DMV office, wait about 30 minutes until my number is called, bring proof of insurance and the VIN (which I don't have with me at work) and pay $20 to get a 2nd trip permit. I was ok with the $20 but waiting for 30 minutes and bringing that paperwork?
So I told her forget it, I'll just get off my lazy ass and install the plates which will take a whopping minute! ok maybe 2 minutes for the front and back plates.
Top that!
