Residency, mail, and a physical address

<< < (8/8)

Path - if I were you I would exclude Nevada.  I am originally from there and the sales tax is fairly low but to register your vehicles costs a fortune.  We had a 2009 Ford F350 - $500+ to register and our 2011 Montana 5th wheel was over $700.  We changed our residency to WA because they have no state tax and registration is cheap.  However, we didn't look into it enough because the sales tax is quite high at 8.8 so we had to pay the extra sales tax on the 5th wheel and then again when we traded to motorhome.

What are you using for an address in WA? We had to change our domecile from there when we sold our home in Arlington.

I will have to disagree regarding Nevada having low registration fees. I lived there most of my life and when I retired we changed our residency to Was because it is so much cheaper to register auto a d RV.  We had a 2011 5th wheel and it was over $700 to register. On the other hand, registration is really cheap in WA but sales tax is crazy at 8.4%. That's a good chunk of change when you are buying a car or RV. Just food for thought
