I think we're missing an important point here. The more she's out of town, the less mayor-ing she's doing. And that's a good thing.

Raphael is just in his refractory period. Give him 20 minutes...

Been wondering this forever. I remember several years ago, the state went from a seven digit license plate system to six digits (3 characters, space, 3 characters). Initially, it seemed like vehicles from B.R. specifically were exempt from the six digit system; and now the only vehicles I see anywhere that have seven characters are pickup trucks. Sorry not the most interesting topic but it's been bugging me for years.

Tax refund season is a big reason. I tried to sell my car to a used dealership in December a few years ago, and they barely offered me any money for it. "That's a tax car" he said, meaning to wait until closer to April when people have their tax refunds. He was absolutely right. I put it on FB marketplace and had several offers within minutes. It was a little sketchy, but I met the buyer at a well lit hospital parking garage to inspect the vehicle and then did the transaction at a title shop.

Pro tip: do NOT skip out on the title shop and assume the buyer will do it. My late father got a stack of red light speeding tickets for several months from the guy who bought his car.
