    That varies from state to state.. Maybe $25 or $50?? There's no telling unless a member from FL knows.. Carry a checkbook and a couple hundred cash you should be good to go... You may or may not get the title in hand.. In TN they mail it to you and that can take several weeks....

    Did you lease the truck? Otherwise title should be in your name with the lien holder signed off. If you're trying to transfer the truck from your ne to your company's name, you'll have to pay title transfer and sales tax based on market value if you're doing this in FL.

    Your really don't need to change the address on the title, it's not like a drivers license. If you do switch to a FL title, as long as you don't change the owners name, you won't have to pay sales tax. I wouldn't worry about it though. My trailer was titled in IL, and I sold it after I paid it off with no problems.
     
    gerardo1961 Thanks this.
