So the car is new, and paid off. I am the titleholder and there is no lien. I appreciate any information!


Answer
The title has to be signed off according to California law. Then the car would be re-registered in Texas by the new owner.
This is from the California state site:
When selling a California registered vehicle, the registered owner of record must:
⢠Release ownership by signing on line one of the title.
If the vehicle is, or was financed, the lienholderâs name appears in the legal owner section and their release with counter signature is required on line two.
⢠Provide the purchaser with evidence of a valid smog certification, if applicable.
Smog certificates are good for 90 days from the date of inspection. The smog certification is not required if the owner or buyer signs a statement that smog certification was submitted with renewal fees within 90 days prior to the transfer date (a vehicle inspection report may be required for proof of certification).

Recent legislation changed the requirements for vehicle transfers occurring on or after January 1, 2005. When you transfer a vehicle that is four or less model years old a smog certification will not be required. The four or less model years old rule does not apply to diesel powered vehicles. A smog transfer fee will be collected from the new owner. When a vehicle is more than four model years old, evidence of a current smog certification must be provided by a seller except when the following occurs: ⦠The transfer occurs between a spouse, domestic partner, sibling, child, parent, grandparent, or grandchild.
⦠A biennial smog certification was submitted to DMV within 90 days prior to the vehicle transfer date (a vehicle inspection report may be required for proof of certification).

⢠Provide the odometer mileage if the vehicle is less than 10 years old (Vehicle/Vessel Transfer and Reassignment Form, REG 262). If the title does not have a designated space for this information, a REG 262 reporting the odometer mileage must be signed by both the seller and buyer. The REG 262 cannot be copied. An original must be submitted. To obtain a form by mail, call DMV's automated phone service 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at 1-800-777-0133. To speak to an operator call between the hours of 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday - Friday, Pacific Standard Time, or pick one up from your local DMV.
â¢Protect Your Liability. Complete a Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability. The seller is responsible for reporting the change of ownership to DMV within 5 days from the date of sale. After DMV updates the information from the Notice of Transfer and Release of Liability, you will be cleared from future liability on the vehicle. The purchaser is responsible for reporting the change of ownership to DMV within 10 days from the date of purchase.

What courses do I need to become a car designer or engineer?




Sarah


Well, I'm a typical 16 year old girl and really want to become either a car designer or engineer. What high school courses do I need to become either or?


Answer
Someone who designs cars may have majored in mechanical engineering at a college or university. Most engineers have at least a bachelor's (four-year) degree. Perhaps you can take high school classes such as drafting and computer design. An engineer should be strong in the sciences (e.g., biology, chemistry, and physics) as well as math (e.g., algebra, trigonometry, and calculus), too.

Please also seek advice from your school counselor re: (regarding) recommended courses for the upcoming school year.

With regard to schooling after high school, please *avoid* those private overly priced For-profit schools such as devry, ITT tech, strayer, Everest, capella, university of phoenix, grand canyon, penn foster, argosy, Colorado tech, ashford, heald, Sanford brown, regis, brown Mackie, keiser, art institute, concorde career, national american university, pima medical, Stratford career, ashworth, full sail and others. Their course credits usually do ** NOT ** transfer to other schools, even if the for-profit school is regionally accredited as opposed to only nationally accredited.

This consumer site has a lot of negative posts by former students of those for-profit schools, and please heed the students' warnings: http://www.complaintsboard.com and can search.

Please instead consider the more affordable (and usually more reputable) community college and/or state-public university as long as the program is accredited within the industry. Just an fyi that "American public university" is a for-profit school.

For U.S. colleges: http://www.utexas.edu/world/univ

This site is supposed to have accredited programs in engineering, technology and computers (though please still forgo those for-profit schools): http://www.abet.org
