True car people are becoming a thing of the past

I lived in Missouri 37 years and moved to S E Tx. 7 years ago. Mo. has/had 3 car plants of the big three and it is an old car hobby state. Tx. is a pickup state and as usual big on GM. Yea big state and lots of population and has an old car hobby like anywhere, but the contrast between the two states to me is considerable. Everything in Tx costs more when buying... but funny how it is always cheaper when selling! Tx. in general has much higher per capita income than Mo. but average type collector cars sell quicker in Mo.

Back in Mo. you paid a few $ for an antique tag good forever. No property tax unless you just want to pay it. If so just a few $. Here you get a 5 year antique tag with property tax prorated over that 5 years plus the high cost of the tag plus have to have inspection. So I just pay for collector car insurance. Mo. antique tag is a little outdated and drive it here in the sticks! Go figure?
