Gil, The coach is currently registered in N.C. and I pay property tax on it there, It will only be in V.A. about 120 days a year if that, and I was talking to THE tax collector. My thinking is we will only motor home about five more years, since I am 70 now but in good health, at that time we will sell the florida property and reside full time here on the farm in V.A. This way I will not have to re register cars and all the other stuff social security Ins etc. If I were going to be making my residence in Florida when we stop motor home travel, I would do exactly as you suggest .I hope this works out alright what do you think of my long term plan? Gary
