Really? Because I hear tags a fair bit often than I hear stickers (Though I do hear both) and I've lived in the DFW area my entire life.

(Also I would totally buy that "tabs" is just some dumbass mishearing/not being able to pronounce "tags" and it caught on in that one very specific part of the country, fwiw)
Don't think so, if it is then it's been that way for at least my entire life.

Just so we're clear, "tabs" is not slang or a colloquialism, the Washington department of licensing calls them tabs over and over here:
