"Can be tagged historic"?

 

Ummm, maybe in Maryland, but most states the vehicle needs to be at least 25 years old, and then you are still extremely limited on where/when you're allowed to drive it.

 I know most states are 25 yrs, but MD is 20 yrs. MD is one of the most restrictive states around and I have never been hassled for driving an historic vehicle. I drove my XJ and 71 Gremlin every day with them. I am not saying it can't happen, just not in my experience.

 

Most of the restrictions come from antique auto insurance, which won't cover you if you are using it as daily transportation. As of now, there is now law that dictates which insurance you have to carry. For my cars, I insure them as drivers if that what I am using them for.

It was a Baltimore Craigslist ad and I'm sure the author wasn't thinking about other states when he created it.

 

As dybamx mentioned, Maryland is one of the worst states in this country when it comes to owning a vehicle, especially if you purchase one in the 5-19 year range.  It's only solace is it's low "Historic" tag rule of only 20 years.  It's very common to see Historic vehicles being used as daily drivers and they don't fall under the strict safety/emissions inspections rules that a vehicle under 20 years of age does.
