Do bears in Montana attack cars on the highway? Question: I've been told that bears will stand out in the road and make you stop and then try to attack. They are strong enough to take a door off a car. Are bears a real hazard in Montana? Answer: No bears just do not stand by the highway and say okay now I am going to attack this car. For the most part they are scared of humans and want nothing to do with us. While a bear may cross the road trust me he is not going after the car, he is just moving in his territory looking for food, a mate ect... If however you PROVOKE the bear than yes it will attack you and your car after all it is a wild animal. I have seen footage of bears that have broken into cars at campsites looking for food, again they are doing what they were made for seek and find food for survival. When ever something like this happens it is almost always human error. If you are camping or hiking in MT make sure you follow some basic bear guidelines. Don't leave food out, or near your campsite. Carry bear mace and if you are hiking wear a bear bell. If they hear something coming they will take off, however if you go a around a corner and surprise them they might attack. I have been to MT, and we did a lot of hiking and I am still here to tell the story. Just be smart, like with ANY animal. I hope this helps. |

How to avoid montana car registration taxes on spouses car for military? Question: In Montana military are exempt, period. We don't pay taxes on car registration, it costs less than 10 dollars to register you car. I just got out of the military but my husband is still in. We want to know what we need to show our bring since the phones are not being answered down there and it is a long drive to just ask a question. He is not on my title, do I need to put him on my title? Can two people be on a title? Answer: It costs less than ten dollars to register your car? If you are talking license plate cost only, then that's probably true (unless you get he fund raiser ones) Otherwise, you'll pay way more than that as a civilian. Yes, he has to be on the title and yes you can have the names of two people on the title. It will take at least a couple of weeks to get the title back from Deer Lodge. However, we tried to do that (when my husband was still active duty) and the assessor looked at my husband like he was on crack and said "nice try" and charged us the regular rate for the second car. If it had been in his name only, we probably could have gotten away with it. |

can i switch over car insurance to new car/ Montana to Wisconsin? Question: I had insurance for my old car when i was living in Montana, liability coverage or whatever is the cheapest. I got rid of my old car, moved to Wisconsin and bought a new (used) car. Can i switch my insurance over to the new car i bought? I got my insurance through AAA> Any advice would be helpful>thanks Answer: No. You would need to reapply for new insurance in WI for your new car. Even if you still had the previous car you would have had to get a new Wisconsin policy on it once the MT policy expired at the latest. Simply contact a local agent to see about getting a policy (through AAA if you liked them) or shop around for a good price in your new address. |

If you hadn't registered it or don't, you WOULD pay the tax where you register it. |

Can someone give me suggestions on which car I should buy for inclimate weather in Montana? Question: I'm planning on moving to Montana. I've always owned tiny two door cars that are perfect for the type of weather here in Memphis. Can someone suggest a car that would be better suited for Montana's weather? Answer: As long as it's front wheel drive, you're good to go. I live in Oregon... and it snows ALOT where I live. You don't need a 4 wheel drive, though they are nice, they are gas guzzlers. Front wheel drive cars handle very well on bad roads. Get a good set of tires and throw a set of chains in your trunk for heavy snow. Good luck! |

Why Should we be guilty if we Buy Foreign Cars Vs American? Question: Im not guilty.The automakers make crappy cars. After Our Pontiac Montana and GM cars both fell apart we switched to Honda and now we have 367k Miles on it. So, My question to you is if you are guilty if you buy foreign cars. (If you dont buy foreign say why) Nope all Foreign cars I buy either say built in Japan or Germany Answer: I agree with you 100%. American automakers INVENTED planned obsolescence, so why should i support them? Plus, I would much rather support some worker overseas making a fair wage to feed his/her family rather than support some shitty, lazy ass union worker making some ridiculously over-inflated wage. I've never bought American vehicles in my life (well, I'm 16), and I plan on keeping it like that. I go for anything European, especailly UK and German. I have a stock 1973 Volkswagen Beetle, which is a perfect car. Wonder why American competition couldnt compare with success. They don't get the point of the free market system- the customer buys what the customer wants, simple as that. American automakers put out the shittiest cars at the highest price, which is bullshit. I am glad Chrystler went bankrupt, so not only do they get a feel for what it's like to take advantage of the idiots in America, many stupid union workers got laid off. Same with GM, and will soon be the same with Ford. I got four words to sum it up- f**k the big three. |
