You paid $650 for what? Just the tag fee, or did that include a one-time sales or excise tax, or an annual property tax?
Oklahoma licenses a privately owned Class A motorhome as a passenger vehicle, annual fee $96 each of the first four years sliding down to $26 after 16 years registered. But there is a 3.25% excise tax when first registered, $11 title fee, and the legislature just added a 1.25% sales tax on some classes of motor vehicle sales which probably include a motorhome.
Licensed as a private passenger vehicle, your motorhome would be exempt from city/county personal property taxes in Oklahoma.
Most other states are as complex in their tax structure, as it might apply to owning and operating a motorhome.
If a big hunk of that $650 was a local personal property tax, tagging a vehicle in another state might not get you away from that, unless you keep the property out of that tax jurisdiction.
