The collection and administration of a gross receipts tax collected for any town, city, or county by the Commissioner shall be collected and administered in accordance with these rules.
A. MAXIMUM TAX LIMITATION.
1. All local taxes shall be collected only on the first $2,500.00 of gross receipts, gross proceeds, or sales price of a single motor vehicle, aircraft, watercraft, modular home, manufactured home, or mobile home.
a. The term “motor vehicle” means a self-propelled vehicle registered for highway use.

2. Sellers should apply the $2,500.00 cap on the sale of a single motor vehicle, aircraft, watercraft, modular home, manufactured home, or mobile home. The purchase of additional tangible personal property in conjunction with the above enumerated items are eligible for the cap if the property is installed, affixed, or otherwise becomes a part of the motor vehicle, aircraft, watercraft, modular home, manufactured home, or mobile home prior to purchase.
Example: J.T. purchases a motorcycle. While at the dealer, J.T. picks out a windshield, saddle bags, pipes, and a helmet. If the windshield, saddle bags, and pipes are installed prior to the purchase, then those items are eligible for the cap. Tax should be calculated on the helmet separately.
