You must live in Scandinavia?!?!

1500 / year in insurance! 500 / year in taxes! Wow ...

I pay $12 / month in car insurance, and $130 / year for registration (taxes).

This doesn't sound egregious to me.

I'm 27 and to insure a hypothetical 2019 Honda Civic it would cost me $280/mo in NYC.

It was ~$110 to get my license so presumably registration would be similarly very high. It was closer to ~$30 in New Jersey.

I guess this makes sense. I have a relative in Boston who pays $900 / month for a PARKING SPOT.

Newer cars have higher insurance as well. I don't see how car insurance can cost only $12/mo. What does that cover?

Legal minimums :D

My truck is 20 years, though.
