My recommendations to anyone yet needing to do this are 1) be sure and take all required documentation and 2) arrive before 10am. Be forewarned if you want to use a charge card they will add a handling fee. If you are prepared to pay with a check you can avoid this extra charge.

I am very happy to be fully FLORIDIAN! Now I just need the tan!

Dittos! My wife and I had the same exact experience there. I had the male rep directly in line with Wanda, the woman who gave us our waiting ticket and went out to verify the VIN's on our two cars. He was great and when I supervised people who did the same exact job in NYS, I would have loved to have another Rep of his caliper!
