A little OT.
Things could be worse. Here in Michigan we can't even get renewal
plates for trailers - we have to buy 'lifetime' plates for several

the price of the plates was higher than the value of the trailer.

Here in low-cost Connecticut, passenger vehicle registration renewal
costs $74 for a two-year period. If you need new plates there's an
additional fee.
