Thank you Gary. I guess the mailing address may be trickier. Not sure if it needs to be in Nevada or if we can use a friends in TX. Has to match insurance. Or is PO Box ok?
Cheers Jackie
There has been a recent crack-down on that for registration purposes here in NV, but mostly because of the smog check requirement in Washoe (Reno area) and Clark County (Las Vegas). People would register to a PO Box in a nearby county that requires no smog check. Even Carson City has no smog check requirement. So people would register to a PO Box there or in Story County. That trick no longer works.
It is best to NOT register in Washoe or Clark counties, but insurance is different.
But how do you park in a PO Box? AFAIK, no insurance company in NV will allow such UNLESS you can prove you can park your RV in a PO Box!
If you register in Washoe County, you will need a smog check. And every year!
BTW, smog checks in NV are done MUCH differently than cars. You can drive your RV to get a smog check with a check engine light on and still pass. That stuff is ignored. They do the full test on RVs from the tailpipe only. They do connect to the OBD2 connector, but that is ONLY to see the RPMs.
Cars are done quite the opposite here in NV. All from the connector and a check engine light is an automatic failure.
But if you register your vehicle in Washoe County, you will need a smog check. But that has nothing to do with the insurance. I just thought I should pass on that info. You can register in one state and insure in another, but again, the insured address should be where you mostly park overnight.
But like Gary says, if you forget to update the overnight parked location, you're still insured and forgetting is not fraud.
