How the base tax bracket works

Below $10,000 the brackets are $25, $35, $45 and $60. From $10,000 the base tax starts at $100 and rises by $40 for every $2,000 of MSRP, stopping at $1,900 for anything $100,000 and above.

A title branded as previous salvage reduces the motor vehicle tax by 25 percent. Small county and plate charges of a few dollars may also appear on your bill.
