I would own a car just like that for tooting locally as a second car, sadly Wisconsin is trying to ban second cars by charging 1/3 that price in taxes title+registration for something that is no more useful than a moped.

Then you have the fact that insurance on such a secondary vehicle has gone from $85 a year to around $600 a year.

In all reality private vehicle insurance should be banned, those who follow the law pay through the nose and because of the cost it seems like no one else has insurance or even a valid registration then you get hit and your fighting with your insurance company but your deductible is $500+ making it a waste anyway and even if they pay nothing and it’s not your fault your rate goes up.
