If you really want to cheat your state out of taxes, why not just go all the way and create a MT LLC? At least that will be sorta legal.
Your best bet right now is to make sure you never get stopped. You're probably more likely to get reported by a neighbor than getting stopped.
NO!
Way more pitfalls to the MT LLC - as the MT plates are a red flag for LOTS of LEOs in LOTS of states....especially if you don't have a MT DL.
Of course - if you're never stopped for some reason, you're home (no pun) free!
And, if you *do* have a MT DL, why bother with a LLC?..:h
Also, the LLC may/will be treated as a commercial entity in (on entering) some states.
Another can of worms - and commercial hoops to jump thru!..:(

OP - bite the bullet - pay the tax in your home state!
It could be worse - you could be in CA with almost 10% sales tax..:R
