I'm generally OK with most of these. Total fees on car purchase would increase by $650 on a $50,000 car purchase, plus $156 additional cost in title and registration.

What I am not OK with is anything that tracks my car:

Another new revenue stream proposed in the package is a mandatory Road Usage Charge (RUC), also known as a pay-per-mile system. This would be a phased-in mandate that would apply to all existing electric cars in July 2026 and all new e-cars in 2027. It would hit plug-in hybrids in July 2028 and all new vehicles with 30 mile-per-gallon or greater in July 2029. Vehicle owners could enroll with the RUC program — which is already in place and known as OreGo — or pay a flat annual fee.

I didn't enable the tracking feature in my car and I won't install a state tracking device. I'll just pay an annual fee, if I must, although I'm sure it'll be far in excess of my actual usage.
