Buying Nissan out-of-state

Hi all,
Me and my wife are currently in Boston, but my wife will move to Texas
soon. We're planning to buy a Murano during her stay in Texas and after
a few months we'll drive back to Boston.

My question is, are there any issues to watch out for, driving a car
bought out of state. What about the servicing, spare parts, collision
situations. If all these situations are handled by the dealer and not
Nissan, its not practical for me to drive down to Texas everytime I run
into trouble :)

If its Nissan that'll take care of these:
Does Nissan's warranty hold good in all Nissan dealerships?

Also, what out-of-state issues should I be looking at?

Thanks,
Lax

Yes. Nothing requires service or warranty work to be completed by the
selling dealership or, for that matter, in the state of the sale.

>Also, what out-of-state issues should I be looking at?

The only issue that you'll have a hard time with is licensing and
registering the car. The Texas dealership is not going to be able to
license the vehicle to someone whose permanent address is in
Massachusetts (or any other state), unless your wife plans on getting
a Texas drivers license and using a Texas address as a "permanent"
address when she makes the purchase.

I don't know the exact rules, but Taxachusetts will likely find a way to
hit you up for sales tax.

From  http://www.mass.gov/rmv/regs/reg4.htm

Vehicles Exempt from Massachusetts Sales Tax

You are exempt from paying Massachusetts sales tax if your vehicle was
registered in another state for more than six (6) months or if your
vehicle was purchased in Massachusetts but delivered out-of-state. When
registering a vehicle in Massachusetts that was delivered to another
state, you must submit a copy of your letter of delivery that must
include: beginning and ending mileage, address to which the vehicle was
delivered and the date the vehicle was delivered. The name of the
individual who delivered the vehicle must be on dealer letterhead.

im pretty sure that when you buy a new vehicle in the US, any dealer in the
US would honor the warrantee, a warrentee is a warrentee at any dealer in
any state

Stop shouting, , get a life, and stop smoking so much pot.

Generally, people will not stop consuming until the government starts to
ration fuel as the supply runs out. Of course, the government could be
investing a lot more in developing alternatives, but that means that people
would have to be complaining about the high cost of fuel and the rationing
as the supply runs out.

Before you know it, Stanley Steamers will come back into vogue along with
Horse Drawn buggies or maybe just Horse Drawn SUV's.
