You don't have to pay for a damn thing, you can give the vehicle to your friend, sign the title (a notary is required) and be done with it. The new own will then be responsible for 2 years of tags and a $200 fine. The state of Oklahoma has a 2 year cap on back tags and penalties. Don't scrap it, if the person wants to save the car, let them do so. It won't cost you anything. You are not required by law to pay for the tags and penalties. The car does not have to be tagged if it is not on the road. The tag agency you talked to is trying to get your money. And 3 years is not the law, 2 years is. I buy/sell/trade cars all the time, I know the laws. Depending on how much of a friend this person is, you can write a bill of sale and leave the date off of it. Then, when the person has the car ready to be driven, you sign the title with a notary and they can get it transfered and tagged. That will save them some money in the long run, but I would only do that if they are a good friend.</blockquote>
