Can I drive a truck I'm buying across state lines, without plates, to get it home?
I would call up your local DMV or appropriate state department and ask them what to do. Most states allow you to pay a small fee and show an out of state status and they will issue you a temporary paper plate for the vehicle to be relocated.
