Sticker shock: Car registration fees skyrocket

Getting your car registered is turning into a wallet-busting experience for many drivers, especially those with hybrids or newer vehicles. People are venting online about surprise surcharges—like an extra $75 just for driving a hybrid in Wisconsin, or nearly $1,000 for a new Jeep in Colorado. States are hiking fees to make up for lost gas tax revenue as more folks go electric or drive fuel-efficient cars. It’s leaving drivers frustrated, feeling like they’re being penalized for trying to save money or help the environment. Have you been hit with a hefty registration fee lately? How do you think states should handle the shift to greener vehicles? #Cars #CarRegistration #HybridFees
