[Rhodes22-list] Tennessee Boat Titles

[Wally Buck]

Brad,

Brad,

Auto theft happens all over. I have only had one car stolen and that was in 
Knoxville about 6 years ago. It was a 90 Jeep Wrangler 5 speed. It was 
stripped and set on fire; a total loss.

I must admit that my Rhodes 22 is not street legal. I have signed title and 
bill of sale but I am still flying previous owners 04 WI Sticker. This year 
I will get legal and pay my sales tax. My Rhodes Bantam has legal TN 
stickers but I don't have a title; just Bill of Sale.

TN is so slack we don't even have front license plates or trailer tags. We 
also doen't have any safety inspection or smog inspection for autos. Come on 
down and drive through; don't mess up or we might shoot your dog. :-)

Wally
