We flew to NY together and picked up my van and drove it to Illinois. Then we drove back to Utah. Both cars worked out well. Fun trip with my Dad.

So how does sales tax work with cars then? It seems like I've always had to pay

You pay the tax when you register it in your state

The thing that caught me was that in CA sales tax is 9% in AZ it's around 8%
