First Things First: Acceptance
QuickTip: Repeat difficult lines until they’re clear.
We all make mistakes. Maybe you loaned your title to your overly-enthusiastic nephew for his "show and tell" about shiny cars (hey, at least he has good taste in automobiles!). Perhaps it got sucked into a black hole during a particularly vigorous vacuuming session. Whatever the reason, admitting defeat is the first step (although, maybe skip the nephew story when you talk to the nice folks at the DMV).
Tip: Write down what you learned.
Step Up, Champ: Approaching the DMV
The Department of Motor Vehicles. Just the name strikes fear into the hearts of even the bravest Oklahomans. But take a deep breath, buttercup! Armed with this knowledge, you'll be out of there faster than you can say "baloney sandwich" (a true Oklahoma delicacy).
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.

- Gather Your Supplies: Just like on any good adventure, you need provisions. In this case, pack your ID, proof of address (like a utility bill), and a completed application for a duplicate title (available online or at your local DMV office). Bonus points for a positive attitude!
- Be Prepared for Fees: There might be a nominal fee associated with replacing your title. Consider it a finder's fee for the Oklahoma bureaucracy gnomes who will locate your lost paperwork (or maybe that's just what they want you to think...).
Congratulations, Pioneer! You've Got Your New Title!
Now you can finally sleep soundly at night, knowing your car is no longer just a glorified metal horse, but a fully documented and legitimate steed ready to conquer the Oklahoma open road!
Tip: Pause whenever something stands out.
Bonus Tip: Take a picture of your new title with your phone and store it somewhere safe. That way, if those pesky gremlins decide to snatch it again, you'll have a digital copy to tide you over.
