Inspection Stickers

When I picked up my truck it had an Inspection and an Emission sticker. However a couple of weeks ago the dealership sent me another sticker and said put it on the windshield. It's bright orange with only a number 2 on it. I called the dealership and no one will return my call on why I have to put it on and why it wasn't there in the first place. Anyone know what it's for? Maybe to show vehicle class or something? Thanks for your help.
 
All depends on what state you live in....so maybe someone from your state can help you.,....

HTH
 
If you live in Pa. the third sticker is a weight class sticker .The Av 1200 in 4wheel drive trim has a gross weght of 5600 Lbs. And need a 3/4 ton plate thus the weight class sticker. This assuming you live Pa.
 
Yup PA is where I am at. That stinks though. I have looked at a couple of other Av's and I only saw one other with a third sticker. Makes sense I traded in my S-10 for this one. So, I guess I better put it on. Thanks for the info.
 
Yeah, its the weight class sticker, I had to Put Mine on too.

That sucks i live i Pa but bought in Nj they transfered the plate from my S10 Blazer to my Av the registion on my Av in for Station Wagon no problem when it was reinspected in Nov for 03
I know of one person at work bought a Dakota pickup and it was the wrong truck (heavyer weight) dealer offered to reorder or give good price on this one(had them over a barrel) took truck and was registered like yours BUT then reregistered as a lighter weight truck magic with paper work says all leagl
 
There is no way around the #2 weight class sticker fellows. My dealer said if he put a #1 on, I would only be changing it later. I think the rating system is wrong, but that's the law. Anyway the additional licensing cost is still worth having an AV instead of some other "Brand X" vehicle.
 
Think about Ca. our license fees are going to triple this year that means that I could pay 1200.00 to 1300.00 for vechicle registration this year. :8:

Is this JUST for registration???? or do you have a personal property tax that has to be paid to get your registration??
 
$1200.00 ???

You get a door prize or anything with that?

My uncle lives in CA and said his are always outlandish but then again he has more cars then he can drive.

But still I would move if I had to pay $1200.00 to register my truck.

Oh well....long live FL

Happy modding
 
I moved from Virginia to California. There is no separate property tax or tax sticker in California. Yes, registrations are going to go up if the Democrat-controlled state legislature has it's way. I wouldn't be suprised if, in the future, there was some sort of special tax on SUV's and trucks.

It's illegal to register an 7000lb. gross weight, AV as a station wagon in PA.....it tells you the people in Harrisburg are not checking the paperwork throughly. AT one time you could register your full size Blazer or Bronco as a wagon...don't no if it's still true. The only truck you can 'legally' register in lower weight class would be a 1 ton.
Here in the Pocono's no one worries about the weight class sticker being on the pickups.
If you do have a lower weight registration, and happen to be overweight, and happen to be stopped by the State Police or DOT and weighed, you'll get a hefty fine that'll make the $81 reg. fee seem reasonable.
