Where do most of the full time rvers call home?
Ok it looks like that it is a close race on where to call home.
I did my research and saw that FL TX and SD were the top 3.
I didn't see any of the stipulations while doing the research so that is why I asked around. With all this being said which state is the easiest to obtain a drivers license for a class A over 26000 lbs, where one is not required to take the whole driving exam again?

Insurance is more expensive, but there's no deductible for glass (windshields).
. When we moved from Indiana to Florida in 2005 and changed our vehicle registration to Florida, they did have to physically confirm the stated mileage for the Florida title. Other than that, no inspection.

SD here also...No inheritance tax, no state income tax, no property tax on the RV, plates and registration via mail, no special licensing for required for motorhome or rv tow driving, no vehicle inspection and lower excise tax on vehicle purchase(4%). That was enough for us.

SD for us. Only downside is that you do have to return every 5 years to renew your drivers license

Texas, Florida or South Dakota. Although SD has fallen out of favor recently due to the poor health care provider selection.
