    Hi group-

    Just bought another Mi16, and I'm flying to Oregon on Sunday and
    driving it back home to California. Apparently, in Oregon, you own
    your license plates, and the previous owner of the car wants to keep
    them to put them on his next vehicle to avoid some DMV fees. He says
    you can get a "trip permit" to drive through OR with no plates. I've
    actually never heard of this, and I don't think they do it in
    California. Usually the cars I've bought, even out of state, come
    with plates and you can cruise around with the previous owner's
    signature on the old title until you get it transferred.

    So...should I try to make it home with no plates, or should I bother
    trying to get an Oregon "trip permit"?
