Always been a good experience. Giving money to the county, city, school,911, and state money. Keep our cars roadworthy while the roads are made for horses and wagons.

Was going to have to pay for not getting it tagged for a couple of years even though it was not drivable. Got those knocked off. So that's pretty good
