Here (Illinois), I have never had to do anything other than call my insurance agent to be covered before I ever leave the dealers lot. We take care of the VIN and other details later. Never been a problem.

USAA will cover any new car I buy without a VIN long enough to give me a chance to get the info. I can buy a car and drive it home and then call them in a couple of days to continue the coverage.
Something else they'll do along that line... There was a company doing "windshield repair" on base. They would charge insurance and do all the paperwork for you. They'd charge the company something like $150. Well, I asked how much if I paid for it in cash. They said $40 but it would be free to me if they charged USAA. I said, "Nah, I'll pay for it." I did. On the way home from there, I called USAA and asked them about it and they credited my account $40 without me even having to show them a receipt. How cool is that? Win, win.

I don't know of anyone around here with a lower number than mine. It's highly possible, of course. I should be getting mine within a couple weeks of the start of production though so there won't be THAT much time. A shindig works for me. Heck, I'll even let you drive it if you can drive a stick!

The reason i said this was Sears and Montgomery Wards sold motorcycles out of there stores. This was a while ago.

Ohio's Anti-Tesla law was passed in 2014, I believe. The dealership people tried to slip it into a 2013 law "..requiring motorists to pull over when approaching maintenance vehicles..." , but it got knocked down that year. It was passed in 2014.
Tesla has fought back in several ways, though. They have even declared that any state that does not allow them to open company stores will not be considered as locations for a future Tesla assembly plant.

If you have a vin number and recite can you then get a title and go pick up your Elio with a new plate.
The VIN number is visible through the windshield from the outside on every vehicle I've purchased. My in State or out of State vehicle purchases were dealer licensed with a temporary paper plate valid for 30 days, during which time you register, pay the applied State Taxes, and license the vehicle at the County Courthouse in your State of choice. I ass.u.me that's a universal practice.
Note: I always contacted my insurance agent to validate coverage before I picked up the vehicle and drove it off the lot.
