I've been manipulated in thinking my 1500 was worth 4000. Wrong. Not with 300000 on it

This is ridiculous had a dodge ram i paid 900 for and before i could go change it over i had to put 3000 in to it just so i could get and inspection because i didnt pay over 1000 after all that time.and effort they made me pay the taxes on 2300

they do the same thing if you own a home in new Brunswick and do not live in it they double your taxes when you could use that money to pay off your house loam

I had the same experience, 4000 dollar car, 1200 dollars in tax, thieves is what they are as the tax on this particular vehicle had been paid 3 times allready

They shouldn't be taxing private auto sales at all. This is a good first step though.

I agree. I have a 2005 Saturn that needs a new motor. The NB Government thinks my vehicle is worth $5500.00. It has no motor, 186,000kms, wrecked interior and cracked fender. Not even worth $500.

I am so fed up with all the government waste , both federal and provincial. They don't run their own businesses with defeciets, so why do they chose to run government that way??? Heads need to roll and they need to be accountable!!!

Absolutly agree!!! And furthermore . . why should a vehicle be taxed EVERYTIME ITS SOLD!!! you pay the tax on it when it's bought new!!!!!

Tax charged has no basis in reality of vechile condition. Appears to be an abuse of people without income to purchase from dealer.

The initial "new car" sales tax is enough - used cars should not be taxed "at all"
