DMV is no worse than any other DMV I’ve dealt with

Tax implications will be the biggest impact. Someone else will know more but I assume your taxes might be less bc you’re currently paying Montgomery county tax on top of state and federal.

If anything, the DMV (at least in SW) is pretty easy to deal with—definitely the easiest experience I’ve had registering my OOS car compared to the 6 other states I’ve lived in. It’s very organized, and the employees are generally helpful.

IMO, DMV is a roll of the dice. As of late, it's been rolling surprisingly in my favor.

I personally don't think it is as bad as people make it out to be, but shit can always go wrong, but we know that, because it's a DMV.

SW DMV was the nicest DMV experience I’ve ever had, between a couple of states across the country

Interesting hasn’t thought of that.

Yeah I don’t mind the DMV experience. Worst ever DMV experience was in Nevada so don’t thing DC could be worse.

DMV is probably the most competent city agency. I can get there early on a Saturday and be done in less than an hour. Sometimes, I'm still filling out forms when I get called. The other city agencies I've had to deal with are awful.

Think about your parking situation. Unless you have your own spot, it can be rough getting a decent parking spot in Georgetown. There's also street cleaning and you will have to move your car to avoid a ticket.

I went to the DMV on a Saturday afternoon, it took about an hour to get everything done. That included a trip back home to get the correct copy of a form!

It probably depends on expectations. I assume it’s likely to take me all day. So I go at the crack of dawn, with all my paperwork.

And if you switch from MD to DC plates you automatically become a better driver
