But after visiting the Escapees RV site I notice that they use Florida or Texas, is there some advantages to these states?
This was one of our biggest issues when we were going full time. Even though we were almost 100% paperless, the mailing address was still extremely important. Our home state does not tax any type of retirement income. Our home state is cheaper than some states (Florida, California, etc.) to insure vehicles. Our health insurance is set up through my retirement employer in our home state. Vehicles registrations in our home state were cheaper than most other states. We just didn't want a mail service handling our mail.
For us it was just easier and more convenient to use our son's home address in our original home state. When we are on the road we provide him with large stamped envelopes so he can send our mail to us every 3 or 4 weeks. He can monitor what mail arrives to determine if it could be important enough to send early.
