Is there sales tax on cars in Alaska? Question: I hear that there is no sales tax in Alaska... like Fairbanks has a city/county sales tax, but that it maxes out at $8 per transaction... Does that mean I will only pay $8 in sales tax for a new car? Answer: There is no state sales tax. But any city or county (borough) can have their own sales tax. Fairbanks does not have a sales tax. |

Which state (minus hawaii and alaska) has the cheapest prices for new cars? Question: Me and my husband would like to buy a new car next year, but we don't want to pay for a car here where we live (SE VA). We feel people really jack up the prices here. We are willing to travel to another state to buy a new car, but we don't know where to go. Does anyone have any websites, ideas, suggestions about where we can look online to buy a new car for the lowest prices? We are looking at American manufactured cars only. Please no rude answers. Thanks. Answer: nj/the closer you get to mass population the more dealers the higher competition the lower the prices |

Cars and trucks in Alaska? Question: I own a 2004 Dodge Neon. I bought it and drive it in Hawaii, but I'm relocating to Alaska. That car has never been driven in cold weather and I've never used the heater, though I know it works. My question is should I buy a truck or SUV before I leave? I'll be starting out in Fairbanks, but end up some place rural later, so I know then I'll have to swap the neon for an SUV, but starting out will my Neon be okay? And does anyone know if my Neon could have a block heater installed? Answer: Try visiting a car repair center in Alaska. http://www.autorepairshopreview.com/Alaska-Repair-Shops.html They can help you with your questions. Try vistiting multiple shops and compare what they say. |

Can you drive to Alaska with a rental car? Question: So, I was thinking about driving to Alaska from South Carolina. I would rent a car, drive to Alaska, then fly back. Would rental cars allow this...crossing through Canada and dropping it off in AK? Purpose: Just to say you've done it. Cost isn't an issue. I'd probably set aside about 10 days to meander my way there, spend a few days in Alaska, then fly back. Answer: Rental car companies generally allow drop offs in different cities/states. Sometimes there are even discounts if you are picking up from a location with too many and dropping off at a location with too few. Alaska has all the main rental places (Hertz, Avis, etc). Just call and ask. But don't expect to drop the car off at some tiny border town. You may need to drive into Alaska a few hundred miles. (easy to do). |

Two cars are driving toward each other on a straight and level road in Alaska.? Question: Two cars are driving toward each other on a straight and level road in Alaska. The BMW is traveling at 104.8 km/h north and the VW is traveling at 40 km/h south, both velocities measured relative to the road. At a certain instant, the distance between the cars is 11.0 km. Approximately how long will it take from that instant for the two cars to meet? [Hint: Consider a reference frame in which one of the cars is at rest.] Answer: because the two cars travel to each other, when the meet, their distance will add to 11km x = vt distance of BMW is x = 104.8t distance of VW is x = 40t 104.8t + 40t = 11 144.8t = 11 t = .079668508 hrs or about 4.6 minutes |

During what time of the year do you have to plug in your car in Alaska? Question: I've heard that sometimes in Alaska, it gets so cold that you actually have to plug your car into an outlet to keep your engine from freezing. Next year, my cousin and I want to take a road trip to Alaska, but since my car doesn't have an outlet, we'd rather go when this isn't necessary. so what would be the best time for us to go? Answer: Depends on what part of Alaska you're headed to. It's really only necessary below about -20. Anchorage can get by without plugging in their cars. Fairbanks cannot.

Is car insurance in Alaska more expensive than in the lower 48 states? Question: I live in Florida and drive a 2004 Chevrolet Aveo. I am 20yrs old and am still making payments on my car, so I have to have full coverage on my car. Here in Florida I pay $164.00 a month which is ridiculous enough, so I just want to make sure its not going to be even more expensive in Alaska. Answer: YES!!!!! Alaska has one of the highest automotive premium rates in the country. There are only 10 states with higher insurance rates than Alaska, and Florida is not one of them! So chances are, you will be paying a higher rate, especially given your age. If I were you, I'd check for more information online and see what kind of rate to expect. There are lots of sites that allow you to plug in info and get insurance quotes. |
