what are the implications if I live in bc, but buy a new car in alberta? the reason I ask this is that well, wouldn't we all stand to save like $1500+ in PST if we all bought there? Would i have to insure it under alberta plates, or COULD i? What kind of fees or restrictions might I be looking at from ICBC? Has anybody done this before, and what were there experiences?
buying a car in alberta?

buy it an AB and you'll get stiffed for the pst when you register it back at home. you've got to have it out-of-province for at least six months (maybe a year?) before you can get away with it.

Yeah, it's true over 6 months. I recently moved back home here to Vancouver while going to school in Cowtown. But, I did save the 1500 hun in PST. 
Gained 1000km's driving back though.
