Florida must have a great DMV. In Massachusetts if someone said “call the dmv” for answers it would be hilarious. I can’t imagine you’d ever get a person on the phone.

In any case I was thinking someone might come along that’s done this before.

The residency thing is interesting. Multiple issues I’d have. 1: the car won’t be operating in Florida so the requirement to change registration isn’t really applicable.
2: Even if it’s allowable to keep my Mass registration, I won’t have a Massachusetts address. That could complicate my insurance situation should something bad happen.
