Yea, the yearly thing you have to pay

. Some states require an inspection you have to pay for and some don't. I've lived in 3 states: California, Nevada, and Texas. I only lived in Nevada for a long Summer, and where I lived (Incline Village) is so close to the border with California that I just 'kept everything California. California doesn't require inspections, but they have a formula to determine fees where (IIRC) the greatest weight is given to what you paid for the car (registration fees in California = a rip off, IMO). It isn't a wonderful flat fee like we have here in Texas. IIRC, Texas has a higher flat fee if your vehicle weighs over a certain amount, but the higher flat fee isn't much more than for vehicles that fall below the weight threshold (like a Yaris). Texas does require a yearly inspection (a bit under $40.00). For those who live in what are designated (IIRC) 'urban counties', this includes a smog check. If you don't live in one of these counties, they don't do a smog check and the inspection is cheaper. In Texas, businesses arrange to get approved by the state as inspection stations. The vehicle owner goes to any approved business to get the test done...and hopefully passes the test. The vehicle owner pays the business for the inspection, rather than paying the state/government for the inspection.
