The notice of transfer is different from an actual title transfer. The electronic form you posted is the equivalent of the top detachable slip found on the vehicle’s title. Basically, if you sell your vehicle to someone and just hand them the title (without actually going to the DMV to watch them register it into their name), the notice of transfer allows you to notify the DMV that you have sold the vehicle. That way, if the new owner goes on a rampage with the vehicle the DMV won’t assume that it still belongs to you. The DMV recommends that this form be sent in within 5 days of selling the vehicle. If you transfer the vehicle to your LLC, this form is not required (since you are technically still the owner).

You will still need to go to the DMV or an AAA office to actually gift (or sell) the vehicle to your LLC, sign the title and applicable paperwork, pay any fees, and complete the registration.

Hope this helps…

I've been retired from Garmin for almost a year now, and just bought (at the full retail price of $250) a Garmin nüvi 1350. It's quite slick, and an improvement over my last year's model, which I also own. (The "nüvi 1350" has a faster processor so it doesn't "stutter" when pronouncing street directions out load.) I am very happy with my Garmin nüvi 1350, and recommend it very highly.

Most of the newer cell phones have a GPS function built in. For privacy purposes, I recommend that you DO NOT buy a cell phone that has GPS, and turn off your cell phone except when you are about to place a call. DO NOT interface your GPS navigator to a cell phone. You DO NOT want your position to be transmitted (by cell phone or by another wireless device) to the outside world.

A GPS navigator has three main functions: (1) a GPS receiver that determines where you -- or rather, the GPS antenna - is located, (2) a map database that "knows" where the roads are, and (3) routing software that plans a route for you from where you are to where your desired destination is, and may give you turn-by-turn voice directions to follow that route. None of these three functions poses any risk to your privacy.

DO NOT, however, buy any accessories that would transmit your GPS position to the outside world.

There's also the hazard of leaving your GPS navigator where a thief or other intruder can access it. To mitigate this risk, set the nüvi 1350's security setting: from the home page, select "Tools", from the Tools page select "Settings", from the Settings page press the down arrow icon to see the "Security" icon (a padlock shape), and from the Security page, press the "Garmin Lock" button to turn that function on. Pick a 4-digit PIN, and enter it TWICE. The little manual that comes with the nüvi 1350 explains it all.

I think you will find the Garmin nüvi 1350 very easy to learn to use.

The goal of the exercise, according to Nohl, is to highlight the vulnerability inherent in GSM technology and to encourage mobile phone operators still using the system to upgrade their digital phone system to 3G, which has better encryption, or to use the more advanced A5/3 encryption technology instead of A5/1.

GSM phone networks in the U.S. include AT&T and T-Mobile. Commercial tools that decrypt GSM communications have been available for some time, but they cost from $100,000 to $250,000. When Nohl's project cracks the key and publishes the code book on the Internet, it will be possible for almost anyone to get the encryption key for any GSM call and eavesdrop on the call or read SMS messages.

After some searching, I recently landed a new job at a moderate-sized company. I have filled out all the paperwork with my mailing address (CMRA) only and have had no problems. I even passed a background check!

(Side note: I love how having a certain northeastern state's license forced the background check company to get MY permission -- on a notarized state form -- before they were able to access my driving record!)

BTW: Thanks for the great site! Just purchased HTBI for cash at Barnes and Noble.

... When you order an LLC, NO NAME is connected with it. You therefore do not need a nominee.

However--at least with orders to Rosie--you will receive an official-looking receipt to show you really own the company. This information will not be seen by anyone else and you may never need it unless you buy real estate. However, it you do not want even Rosie to know your name, then ask her to send you the receipt in blank. (It won't look as official however, if you have to write the name in later.)

2) Although it's advisable to have separate LLCs for each car, if you sell a car, can you keep the LLC it was titled in and use it again for your next car?

... 1) The insurance should be in the state where you live, and use the car.

... 2) Yes.

Thanks for all your good work on helping people to protect their privacy.

... I have never heard of a tax ID being needed just to buy a car. Only if you will use it for a business (such as a taxi or a delivery vehicle) would a tax number be needed. If someone told you the LLC MUST have a tax number, try a different office.

It is getting the time of year for Christmas and New Year parties. Just a reminder a DWI Can ruin any attempts at HTBI should you drink, drive and get stopped. A few drinks are not worth an arrest record. Not to mention you could kill someone including yourself.

Just plan ahead and have a DD or a taxi service phone no. available. I have found that a taxi cost me $8.00 to $18.00 one way. Much less than the start of trying to get out of a DUI.

I never have them drop me off at my exact location.

Each year Microsoft sends me an email and reminds me that in ten days, they will deduct $19.95 from the credit or debit card listed on my account. When I receive the notice, I buy a $25 Visa All Access gift card and put it on my account. I did so last week.

I just received a notice from Microsoft stating the card did not work and to add another card to my account or they will cut off my service.

Is anyone familiar with this particular card? Do they now require it to be registered in order to work? More important, does anyone know of any gift card that works these days with registering it that I can use here? Thanks.
