I don't plan on doing that and you could very well be right.
That would mean then, if I drive it to Florida, on the 91st day I would have to cancel the insurance and registration in MA, then re-title and insure and register in FL.
Then re-do all upon return to MA.
There is something wrong with that picture.
Thanks for info.

I just realized that that would be contrary to the information I received from the insurance companies. (The car must be registered in the state that it lives most of the time)
