A lot of information is available from Escapees They are by no means the only way to handle or approach the issues, but their site will give you some ideas and options.
Texas, Fl, and SD are the big three for full timers and there are established options for using all three. All three have no state income tax.
In general, each has advantages, which fits you the best is up to your personal needs.
Fl is usually thought to have the best health insurance options for folks not on Medicare. Has great weather for winter visits, and has numerous mail options.
Texas is lower on vehicle insurance, has exemptions from vehicle inspections for travelers when out of state, plenty of options on mail forwarding and services like escapees there that know how to cater to full timers and best assist them.
SD requires no vehicle inspections at all, so no annual trek for emissions or safety inspections, low vehicle tax, and no property taxes, they were also on the low side for vehicle insurance. (at least in my case) They also allow for domicile change in just one day.
Good luck on your search
