So to understand what you do is---take an existing Provincial vehicle license plate and put it on the motorhome just purchased,change the vehicle registration on the existing provincial plates with the provincial issurer,pay what ever provincial and Canadian gst on the new one.Put the new Florida address on the newly transferred plates registration.Get an insurance company to insure the american vehicle with Canadian provincial license plates and an out of country vehicle.Do you also have to pay the Florida sales tax also?Something I must not be understanding.It must be done all the time but I don't quite understand all the steps.

Sorry maybe i didnt answer properly,i bought the Motor home in Florida,paid the tax there,platting it in florida,so it will have a Florida plate,using my Ontario drivers license with no problems(DMV)and i wont bring it back to Canada,it will stay in Florida.

curious how do you license and insure it as a non resident of the U.S.A?

Very easy,i called DMV,in Florida and they said i can use my Canadian License,used the address where i will be keeping it in Florida,and found an insurance company that insures lots of Canadians.

Mayo30 Not really sure yet how much we will drive it

Sorry 460 engine and Ford Chassis

Yup, chassis (wheel cut angle) and wheelbase are the two important factors in turning radius.

posting the chassis would help. Ford or Chevy?
