Hey everyone,
First off, thank you all...I've been on here for about a month now, and I've already learned so much about my Xterra.

My issue is this: I purchased a 2000 Xterra about a month ago from a dealership here in North Carolina. I was issued 30 day temp tags upon picking up the vehicle. Now, here's my issue. My temp tags expire tomorrow, and I just found out today that the reason my hard plates aren't at the dealer yet is because the dealer hasn't been able to get possession of the title from the previous owner. Now, my take on it is, the dealer should have had the title upon recieving and espically before selling the vehicle. They're refusing to give me another set of temp tags (which the NC DMV told me that they should be able to do) and they want to put me in a loaner vehicle. Does anyone have any insight on if I'm driving around a technically "stolen" vehicle with an invalid registration?
