Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.
We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!
Is anyone using a Montana LLC to register their RV? We are getting close to making a purchase and I'm wondering if the time and hassle are worth the effort or should we just bite the bullet and pay the tax? Will I have to convert my drivers license to Montana also? It think that I've seen previous posts on this subject but its been quite a while ago.

We have hear alot do this. We live in Virginia & read where alot do this. But we chose to just pay the tax an not worry about the government. We bought a class A in 2013 an it did hurt the bank acount. Good luck on your purchase.

Lots and lots of full-timers have used the Montana LLC option without a problem. In fact, it's less likely for a full-timer to have an issue as long as they don't spend much time in their state of domicile. And it's different if you are starting a legitimate LLC versus just using the LLC as a shell to avoid paying sales tax.
Also, if you do a search on this Forum, you will find a Colorado couple that was charged with a felony for using the Montana LLC option.
It's certainly tempting to avoid paying sales tax on an expensive RV, but be sure you understand the risks and get legal advice in your state of domicile.
