Ca wants their sales tax! They also want the registration fees. Even Mobile Homes that are not on permanent foundations are required to have current registrations. There are exceptions for traveling with a out of state registration.
Ca has not always used the same standard of enforcement.
One other thing the OP should look into. Ca has looked at people that they believe have substantial ties to the state and asked for state income tax [ on their full earnings]. This is one of those times where I would be talking to a CA tax attny. I would want to know if a CA registration would trigger a Franchise Tax filing. Good Luck DR
