Thanks for the information...I appreciate it. Now to the specific question I would like to ask.

We will become permanent residents of Florida in October. We will be getting rid of one of our cars here in Connecticut and driving the other (2004 Jeep we bought new) to Florida. Our plan is to trade that car in for a new one. What's the best way to go about it: 1. Should we simply take our Connecticut registered Jeep to a Florida dealer, trade it in and let the dealer handle the paperwork? 2. Should we register the car in Florida and then trade it in? 3. Any other options?

I am assuming that we would get Florida drivers' licenses before we do anything with the car.

Any guidance would be appreciated.
