Terry,
I have fought the same battle. I don't know what state your truck is in. But if that state does not use titles prior to 1999, such as New York (1977) a bill of sale will suffice . You do have to be forceful but polite. Don't give up, if you ask enough DMV employees you will get the help you need. I learned something in the frustrating ordeal of getting the Montauk NY. truck out here. If you purchase a vehicle outside the state of Ca. and it doesn't enter the state for 91 days from date of purchase. You pay no taxes. it saved me over a $1000.00 when I finally got my PW registered.
If you want a couple more tidbits of info I picked up , shoot me an e-mail and I'll do what I can. RDT
