That is indeed still true in Texas. Just a few months ago I wanted to give my
camper I don't use to the friend who has been actually using and maintaining
it for the past few years. When we went to do the transfer we were told it
would be long and complicated if it were a gift, but would be very simple if
it were a $1 sale. We picked the $1 sale.
