Many states do not require you to pay tax on a "gift" vehicle. http://www.dmv.org/title-transfers.php www.dmv.org DMV.ORG - The Unofficial Guide to the DMV

The above refers to a state sales tax. And certainly, if it was any other piece of normally sales taxable tangible personal property, say a piece of art, it would even then also incur no sales tax.

For income tax purposes (both Fed & State) - the grandson does not have to pay any income tax on this gift.

Gifts up to 11,000 per person per year are exempt from gift tax. So each you and your wife may give that amount each year (22K per) person without any gift tax considerations. If the gift is worth substantially more than that, you can gift him that amount per year for a few years to get the job done! (There may be estate tax concerns over the lifetime giving credit, if you anticipated estate is large).

It is common in estate planning to establish a system where the estate gives these gifts regularly to reduce the potential estate (inheritance) tax free..or reduce the estate to below a point where other taxes are required.

If I give my grandson my old car can I put him on my insurance?

You need to speak to your agent. Are you giving the car totally to him, (signing title over in his name? which would be wise). Does he reside in your household? Or are you keeping it and he is just going to be a principle driver? Contact your agent or policy services to see what is the best thing for you to do.
