If the surplus property is or includes a vehicle, the Department will also provide the title to the vehicle and a letter which will give authority for the agency to drive the vehicle from the Department to another location without a license plate .

(4) All sales will be transacted in good faith. Payment-in-full on a purchase order is due within forty-five (45) days of the sale. Failure to pay authorizes the Department to repossess any surplus property for which payment-in-full has not been received.

(5) Prior to sale, all identifying decals and insignias on the patrol vehicle will be removed by the Department . No patrol vehicle shall be sold with the intent that the vehicle represent the Oklahoma Highway Patrol.
