Out of state vehicle title transfer

Recommended Posts

I'm getting a truck from my Mom in Ohio.

 

On her end, I think they have to sign and date the title in front of a notary and a bill of sale.

 

What can I do for plates? Should I just have her do the title, mail it to me then transfer and get plates before I go out to pick it up?

 

I would think NJ would just accept a notarized title with a bill of sale but I'm not sure if there are other requirements.

 

Anyone have experience with this?

NJ DMV has a set regimen for how they will title and register a car. You should give them a call and ask what you need.

 

I'm having an issue right now where I bought my car from California, financed half the amount, and apparently California keeps the title and will only transfer it to the DMV for registration. Problem is, California takes forever to issue titles and does not issue temp tags. So I'm stuck with a car that I can't drive until I get the title sent here, and god knows how long that will take.

I've only bought new cars from out of state. I brought the title to the DMV with all the stuff filled out. They charged me the tax and the amount to re-title the car to NJ, then they printed up a new one and I was done (oh and the inspection).

This vehicle is fully paid for, so there's no issues like that. I will have the clear title in my hand.

I payed cash for a used truck in Delaware a few years ago. Had no problems transfering at NJ DMV with title and bill of sale. They didn't give me the NJ title right away, only registration card and plates. The title came in the mail a couple of weeks later.

K, that's exactly what I was after. Did the guy in DE notarize it?

No. Your best bet would be to call NJ DMV like one of the other posters said. I do remember the Delaware title was a lot different than the NJ one. Each state may do things a little differently. I do remember the woman I was dealing with at NJ DMV had to call one of her friends over because she was having trouble understanding the Delaware title. She tried telling me I signed it incorrectly, but she was wrong.

I bought a new truck in Ohio back in 2000, the dealer didn't have the means to register it for me here in NJ so he gave me the title (which I was surprised by since I financed the truck) and I registered it here myself - after paying the sales tax in NJ. I don't remember if the title was notarized or not, but I was not a problem at all to register it here.

 

I have also since then bought several new trucks in NY and registered them the same way, again I don't remember if the titles were notarized.

My girlfriend just titled and registered a car this morning she purchased from her uncle in conecticut.

Nothing was notorized. They didn't even want to see the bill of sale he filled out and signed for her.

Ok, that makes it easy.

 

I just need my mom to get the title to me then so I can transfer my plates.

    • We never let then inside.  Last re-evaluation was 6-7 years ago, wife politely told him that he was welcome to look around the property and he could look in the windows. He saw two white resin chairs in the basement and told her that this constituted a finished basement. And everything in the basement is bare concrete/ cinder block, and mechanical systems. Nothing finished about it. Ultimately he relented and I'm sure that was a ploy to coerce us to allow him in
    • I use an Alien Gear cloak tuck (IWB) with my Shield.  Neoprene back - in the summer it does feel warm but doesn't rub or chafe.   https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-iwb-holster.html Could also go with the shapeshift as it has multiple options - OWB/IWB, Appendix... https://aliengearholsters.com/ruger-lcp-shapeshift-modular-holster-system.html
    • The  12-1 compression ratio L88 is long gone. This is GM's updated version. it might be  pump gas 10-1 engine The L88 was a aluminum head  cast iron block engine with a nasty solid lifter cam. the  ZL1 was a all aluminum  12 or 13-1 compression ratio engine with the best forged internal parts at the time and had a even nastier solid lifter cam 
    • I like my regular carry holster.  OWB leather with belt slots.  I've been carrying for over a year and it was comfortable and I hardly even noticed it.  I carry (usually) a Ruger LCP .380 - light, convenient, tiny. But...today I ended up taking it off an leaving it home after a few hours. I cut down a big maple tree a few days ago and I spent 3/4 of today loading and unloading firewood into the back of my truck and a trailer.  It was a warm day, I was dirty, tired, sweaty, and my holster was rubbing against my side.  The leather and exposed metal snap was no longer comfortable. I'm thinking about adding a layer of something to that part of the holster to soften the contact.  Anything insulating will make it worse.  I don't want a sweaty, hotter holster against my skin.  I'm imagining something thin, breathable, that won't absorb sweat, and softer than leather, metal snaps, and rivets.   But I have no idea what would work. I'm hoping somebody else has already figured this out and I can just do what they did. Any suggestions appreciated.
    • Check the primers on the ammo you didn't shoot yet. Are they fully seated? If the primer is not just below flush with the back of the case, the first hit can seat it better then the second hit ignites it.
