That just isn’t true at all. I looked through the list and can’t find a single town that charges a higher mil rate on vehicles than on other property. The only time it differ is when vehicle tax is lower due to the state cap. This is publicly available information.

Check Stamford's for 2017-2020. The mill rate for mv there is 27.25 but has been lower for real estate.

You are wrong. The MV mill rate is set by a towns board of finance. The town can choose to tax mv at any mill rate UP TO 32 mills. Real-estate and personal property mill rates are set separately.
