Any tips on buying and driving home an out of state car?
I guess this pertains more to driving the car home. I'm flying up to good ole Michigan to pick up a car this friday. I have an extra tag off an old car but not sure if i should put that on the car or not for the drive home. Does anyone know what the official verdict is on this? As far as insurance i'm going to call them today and let them know that i'm going to purchase the car friday. Just looking for anyone with experience driving a car home from out of state...thanks.

Get a temp tag, DO NOT USE A TAG OF ANOTHER CAR THAT IS A FELONY
If the car is already tagged I would ask to borrow that Tag and then mail it back.

yeah thought about that, borrowing their tag. I found info about temp tags on the florida dmv site but having a hard time finding info on the michigan site, which is where i'll be buying the car. oh well.

I called up the florida dmw and they told me i needed to get the temp tag from MI where i'll be buying the car. So i called up the MI dmv and everything seems to be kosher, its $14 for a temp tag. Thanks for the help guys.
