Just FYI, a bill was filed requiring off road vehicles to be titled in Texas, unless they are being used in a timber area or farm. Its HB 2237, by Rep Lyne. If anyone has an interest pro or con, just wanted to put it up here. Dont know if it will go anywhere or not, has not yet passed the Legislature.
The bill adds this new law:
"Sec. 501.0225. CERTIFICATE OF TITLE REQUIRED FOR OFF-ROAD VEHICLE. A person who purchases, imports, or otherwise acquires an off-road vehicle, as defined by Section 152.001, Tax Code, that is not required to be registered under Chapter 502 may not operate or permit the operation of the vehicle in this state, or sell or dispose of the vehicle in this state, until the person obtains a certificate of title for the vehicle. This section does not apply to an off-road vehicle that is exempt from motor vehicle sales and use taxation under Section 152.091, Tax Code" (meaning timber or farm use...)
