The Minnesota Department of Revenue reminds you that recreational vehicles are subject to the state's 6.5% motor vehicle sales tax, and they must be registered in Minnesota, no matter where you bought the vehicle.
A new report by the state Revenue Department says wealthy Minnesotans pay a smaller share of their incomes in state and local taxes. The 10 percent of Minnesotans who earn more than $130,000 annually paid an average of about 10 percent of their incomes in taxes in 2008, the latest year for which the data was available.
