I thought not having to pay sales tax was one of the benefits
A lot of people think this.
Another interesting tidbit, if you buy something from Parish A, but live in/will be using said product in Parish B, you may owe the difference in sales tax to your Parish (or conversely you can receive a credit I believe if Parish A sales tax is higher than Parish B's)
Someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
ETA: A little helpful information

You are wrong. Tax is calculated at point of sale. A car is a movable so the tax due is based on your home address and not where you buy it. One of my favorites is on delivered items. If I buy and pick up furniture in say Lafayette the tax will be calculated there at close to 10%.If I buy it and they deliver to my rural address the tax is calculated at my home which is 7.55%. Most places know this but dont volunteer that info.
