Anyway, I need to get a 2nd car which will be garaged at Mirror Lake (I own a house there). Since the move is actually planned, it does not make sense to register the car in MA, and certainly does not make sense to pay MA sales tax for a car that is going to be kept in NH.

But, for this interim period of time, I *AM* a Mass resident.

Does anyone have any experience with this? I did a lot of searching on the net, and could not find a clear answer.

Any help will be greatly appreciated!
I live in MA and have a house in NH. As of last year, I was able to register a car in NH as long as the car was being garaged in NH 100% of the time, which my car was. I heard that these regulations may have been relaxed to be that the car must be garaged in NH "most" of the time but I'm not sure. According to the town where my house is, I can operate the vehicle anywhere I want but it's not supposed to be "garaged" anywhere but NH.
