Australian Travelling around the USA for 6 months
My wife and I are from Australia and are embarking on a 7 month grand tour of the USA this year :). I'd like to ask members for help / advice / experience on a couple of issues around registering the RV, insurance and using mail forwarding.
We intend to buy the RV in either CA, TX, or FL (in April) as this is where many of the used RV's are located. My current thinking is to register the RV in the State we buy it in for simplicity (even though some other states may have cheaper registration/insurance rates).
We won't have a residential/permanent address to use for the registration or insurance as we're travelling most of the time. Some of the mail forwarding services seem to suggest the address they provide can be used to register the vehicle and insure the vehicle, but I'm not sure if we are eligible to do so as foreigners. I saw in another forum where a foreign couple said the RV dealer they bought the RV from did this for them as they also had no US address.
Any advice you can give would be much appreciated - Thanks and regards, Gareth.
