Re: Emissions, What to Do?
I faced a similar situation a few years back with an old pickup truck when I
got stationed in California. I spent alot of money having the exhaust
upgraded and replacing the catalytic converter. Once I got there though, I
found out that I could just keep my S Carolina tags and nobody even cared,
including the base and the state. I'm in N Carolina now and just replaced
the California tag on my Cherokee with a local one after living here for
about 7 years. I don't think you'll have any problems keeping your FL tags
and registration.

Hi Jim,
Look though Arizona Military Personnel Information, and see if you

Re: Jeep Emissions, What to Do?
Bill,
According to your link, emissions testing apply only to the Phoenix and
Tucson metro areas. I knew that. I lived no where near those cities so I
never had a requirement. Since I'm out of state now (have been since 2000),
I receive a registration notification card when my reg is due, but nothing
for emissions requirements.
I live in VA now where emissions testing is required. That's why I still
carry reg & Lic in AZ. AZ DMV only requires me to prove that I have
liability insurance for AZ. Since coverage requirements in VA are greater
than in AZ, I just have my insurance company (USAA) send me an AZ insurance
card. AZ DMV is happy with that.

Best is to check with the local JAG office.
The laws depend not only on where you are stationed but also on your
home state, as well as your age. I was under 21, and the State of
Montana claimed that I could not change my residence away from
Montana while still under 21, and that therefore I had to pay
Montana State Income Tax for my military income up to the date where
I actually turned 21. I fought. I lost. Sadly, I couldn't find
any liquid bullsh*t that would write well enough when I sent them
the check with a suggestion as to what they could do with it...but
they just cashed the thing. Meanwhile, New Mexico allowed me to
claim "resident" status for the purposes of getting in-state tuition
rates and even noted that this did *not* mean I would have to pay
any income tax on military pay...even if it was received 3 months
after I left the service. New Mexico also allowed me to register
my car as a local resident.
