I'd tell them that the truck will be returned if you do not receive the title within a certain amount of time. On your contract was tax tag and title fees, i'd consider the contract null if i did not receive everything i paid for. They won't want it back and will get to work on it. If they don't or didn't have a title in thier name the sell may be illeagal and they would be responsible.

Either way from Germany it is going to be a pain in the ***, Most states have extensions you can get for taggs while waiting on title, if the dealer lost the title and has to file for lost title it could take a very long time.

Every vehicle i have bought has been registed in a state other than purchase as i am in the military as well. It is always a pain in the A@@, because some title clerk at the dealer who thinks they know everything about titling gets axle wrapped when a state does something diffrent than they are used to.

Good luck!

Call the Secretary Of States Police office here in Springfield, they'll get it straitened out for you. Auto sales issue is one of there main jobs.
