a couple questions: is there any safe, reasonably priced, long-term parking at MVD airport? and what are car insurance prices like? for comprehensive? i've seen the big difference in road tax paid by people - is this due to where the car is registered? is road tax = license fee /registration in the states? any gems for the soon to be car owner? were there any unpleasant surprises about car ownership that you experienced? is car theft a big problem (say compared to an urban area in the states or UK)? big appreciation for anything!!

This depends on make/mode/year... A client of mine pays for a Chevrolet Spark 12.000$/year and I pay for a 2012 Chevrolet s10 18.000$/year
i've seen the big difference in road tax paid by people - is this due to where the car is registered? Not so much anymore, before it was depending on where in the country they were registered, Montevideo paid more than for example Paysandu.
is road tax = license fee /registration in the states? I am not from the states but I take it, it is.
any gems for the soon to be car owner? were there any unpleasant surprises about car ownership that you experienced?
Apart from the high prices pretty straight forward, it is easier to buy a new car rather than a used.
is car theft a big problem (say compared to an urban area in the states or UK)?
