Like others have said, we use Escapees in Livingston, Tx as our mail forwarder and that is our legal, physical address.

Medicare doesn't care and since they have so many fulltimers/snowbirds here for the winter, physicians are use to dealing with people only here 6 or so months each year. Medicare works well for traveling fulltimers - never have a question asked, just show cards and get treated.
As to the vehicle inspection in Texas - if you are out-of-state when you register, you just self-certify that you are out of state and have 3 days after returning to the state to get the vehicles inspected. I know people that only go back once every 12 years to get new DL with new photos. Otherwise, their vehicles never see Texas highways.
