I wonder if this out of state tax rule only applies to cars or if other stuff such as boats also. I know when I bought my boat in Vegas and had it shipped to Hawaii, the dealer I bought it from in Vegas gave me the option to pay the tax on it upfront based on Nevada tax rate or when I register it in Hawaii. They actually told me it was better to pay the tax on it in Hawaii since Hawaii tax rate is like half of Nevada's. However, boats here in Hawaii aren't registered to the DMV (only the trailer is) and so there was no one to pay the tax to here in Hawaii as the department I register the boat only charges a set $115 fee ($60 for the boat and $55 for ramp usage).

I only know about auto--- not sure about boats and other luxury items/recreation items.
