A car for Woodbridge, from I-95 to Route 1
Woodbridge lines up along I-95 and Route 1 in eastern Prince William County, just south of the Occoquan River. With Potomac Mills, two VRE stations and the express lanes close by, drivers here want cars that handle long highway commutes and busy shopping traffic alike.
I-95, the express lanes and Route 1
The 95 Express Lanes give Woodbridge drivers a toll option heading north, while Route 1 carries local trips and the traffic around Potomac Mills. If you ride the express lanes as a carpool, an E-ZPass Flex matters more than the car, but a quiet cabin and adaptive cruise control make long highway stretches easier. For VRE riders, a dependable used car for the station run may be all you need.

Woodbridge is part of Prince William County
Woodbridge is not an incorporated town, so Prince William County bills the yearly personal property tax on a car kept there. The small town of Occoquan next door is separate and can add its own charges. The county's website lists the current rate and how to report a vehicle you just bought.
Virginia sales and use tax and title
Virginia charges a motor vehicle sales and use tax of 4.15% of the gross sales price, or $75, whichever is more.
The gross sales price includes the dealer processing fee, and a trade-in does not lower it. Title and registration fees are separate, and the estimate below leaves them out.

Estimate only. This is not an offer of credit or a commitment to lend. The APR (annual percentage rate) shown is an estimate; your actual APR, payment and terms depend on a lender's review of your credit and on the vehicle. Taxes and fees may differ, and registration fees aren't included.
Questions from Woodbridge buyers
-
Does the calculator include tolls or E-ZPass?
- No. It estimates the price, Virginia's sales and use tax, fees and the monthly payment only. Tolls on the 95 Express Lanes depend on how and when you drive.
-
Is a hybrid worth it for Route 1 traffic?
- Hybrids tend to save the most fuel in slow, stop-and-go driving like Route 1 at busy times. Compare a hybrid with a gas model using the calculator, and ask JB about any specific car.
-
Who bills the car tax if I live in Woodbridge?
- Prince William County, because Woodbridge is an unincorporated community in the county. The one-time Virginia sales and use tax is paid when you buy the car.
