Iowa is stupid in a lot of ways but this one reason right here is one of stupidest. You are looking at a $397 license plate renewal for one year. Yes 1 year! They go by the year of your vehicle and what it cost brand new and somehow figure it up. Now if you have a 9 year old vehicle or older, or any year of truck it is just a $35/year rate. How does that make sense? The cost does go down a little every year but I asked how much it would cost next year and they said only $305. Only! Whatever! We drive a 2004 Tahoe and a 2003 Maxima and paid total $611 to drive them this year. Isn't that insane? Keep in mind we are from Illinois where it is $78/year for whatever you drive. (or it was when we moved away almost 2 years ago) Let me know what you think of this.
