$60 was probably the standard charge. $75 here. Yep, there are always extra fees (clean air act fee, plate fee, title, etc, etc). Just recently cost me $209 (because my sale price was low ), and I pay property tax every year on the car (haven't gotten the first bill yet).

Most of it gets coffered into their buddies companies who dont do jack crap and milks projects out so that they can go overbudget and take more of what they dont deserve.

For those of you in the Massachusetts, New Hampshire area look at the Big Dig. For those of you who are not familiar:
