Vehicle Registration Fees

Friend of mine was complaining about his DMV in another state and it made me curious about ours. I've only ever paid the renewal for a car which is only $135.

The curb weight is under 7000 lbs so we'd just be paying $187 every 2 years? I see there is a section specific to trucks but it has a minimum weight.

California now charges higher fees for all EV's, since we're not paying the gas tax. They collect it in registration instead. My 2019 Tesla Model S is around $900 per year. Purchase price was only $86,000 at the time. I expect that $80,000 trucks won't be cheap either.
They should refund you the money they save for not having to go through emissions inspection.
