What if I got a new vehicle and used the same plate?

If you took the plate from one vehicle and put it on another vehicle, you do not have to do anything. The billing will follow that plate. If you did this after October 1, 2016, the bill that you receive in July 2017 will be on the old motor vehicle, and next January you will receive a pro-rated tax bill on the new motor vehicle, with a pro-rated credit from the old motor vehicle applied to the new motor vehicle.
