Re: montana LLC Reply #27 – August 28, 2012, 12:54:12 pm Yahoo Message Number: 82044I think the best way to solve the problem is to suck it up and register all your vehicles in the state in which you live. That way you don't have to waste all that time and energy trying to avoid taxes and registration fees that in all reality, if you can afford to buy and operate a Country Coach, you should be able to afford anyway.David Jarrett2003 Magna 42' Resort #6240 Quote Selected

They disregard the going/ market value and go off the original selling price. Oh well, we have other tax advantages here---no state income tax is the best one.Ed Wiseman 2009 Inspire #52167Question about connectors?

Re: montana LLC Reply #29 – August 28, 2012, 02:50:26 pm Yahoo Message Number: 82047They have the VIN Number of all those RVs Registered in Montana and they put them in their database. When they come upon an RV with a Montana Licence Plate or No License Plate they then get the VIN Number of the RV and see if it is in their Computer. Then they write a ticket and you have to appear in court or go to jail. When you appear in court the judge rules that you are trying to avoid paying taxes and then penalties are then assessed against you along with court fees/charges/fines. It seems some people have criminal minds and will do anything to avoid paying taxes even if it is illegal because they can Rationalize it in their mind that Big Government is Greedy and thus they are okay beating the Government out of tax money. The correct way is the change the laws that you don't like not to try to break the law because you don't agree with the Law. Quote Selected

We used the South Dakota address thing for a few years until I realized that if all residents of Washington State did the right thing maybe the condition of our roads would improve.Dick Bradley04 Intrigue #11830 Quote Selected
Re: montana LLC Reply #31 – August 28, 2012, 03:27:01 pm Yahoo Message Number: 82049Most states advertise for "whistle blowers". Friends and neighbors are often quite happy to report on those with vehicles not displaying licenses for the same state as the person's residency. Armed with this tip, the legal entity will develop a file based on interviews with whomever will talk and then work backwards to determine if a cross exists between a known corporation or name on a Montana motor vehicle registration or corporation. California is reported to have by far the greatest sheer number of motor homes registered in Montana. Not surprisingly they are also reported to be the least aggressive investigators and most in need of the revenues.Gerry2007 Allure 31447 Quote Selected

Our current coach is a 2003 Magna 42' Resort, and, as far as I can remember, our registration fees have dropped significantly each year.
