Kind of half listening to the news last night, I think the $10 add passed.  I'll do some digging to see if it came to be or not.

They don't have more power, they are better organized and are better funded.

And phool, if you got your plates issued to you the first year they were available, then you have another $ grab coming.

The time has come to get new plates.  The reflective junk supposedly has expired over time.  So they nick you for new plates.
I think my truck cost me about $154 for a renewal this year with the new plate fee.
This fee included a cost to keep my same plate number too, just like they nick you for a keeping your personalized plates.

Bastages!!!  :(

Not sure what goes bad on those plates but they don't require a plate change on vintage cars with old raised letter plates, why did those plates never go bad?

I have no idea, other than another opportunity to generate revenue.

The elk plate I renewed for the camper that rides on my truck cost me $73 last week.  It had been $32 for the prior 6 years.
At least that renewal (camper) they didn't ask me if I want to donate to the State Parks.
Yet they did on my car trailer and horse trailer. 
Figure that one out!!!!   :chuckle:

The legislature is having to legislate wolf management already because WDFW is in love with wolves. If WDFW needed to save our elk, deer, and moose so they can sell licenses to put food on their dinner table they would sure consider better management.

I would pay more $ for better management and quality of hunting. The problem is that WDFW is on legislative welfare, they do not have to produce a good product, take away the welfare and we will see better management. They either manage better or they take some pay cuts or unemployment like the rest of Americans.

My thoughts exactly Bearpaw.
