Hmmm..... I guess I always thought you paid tax in the state the vehicle gets registered in, not the one you purchase it in.

Yeah California gets you, even if you are an out of state resident. I had my van shipped to Oregon from LA, because that was much cheaper than the sales tax I would have paid if I picked it up.
Many state do charge sales tax when you register a new vehicle. Oregon doesn't have sales tax, so shipping the van was a no brainer.
When my brother bought his motorhome from a San Diego area dealer, the dealer drove it to the Nevada state line, and they transferred ownership there.
