Registering our Rroadtrek in New Hampshire

After almost 50 years we're moving to NH to be nearer our family. In Vermont our '05 210P is registered as a passenger car - what classification would we have in NH?

Thanx!
  • My I insurance Co. has it listed as a MH. Only the Secy, of State has it listed as a Dodge Van.
  • When I registered my RT in Ohio, the DMV started to register it as a van since that's what the VIN tells them it is. I insisted it be registered as a MH and took the clerk out to see the vehicle. Once she looked inside she agreed and registered it as a Roadtrek MH. If you're in an accident and have an insurance claim against another driver and insurance company, you want it registered as a MH, otherwise any damage to RV parts (furnace, water heater, refrigerator) could be denied.
  • We bough a Pleasure-way Excel from a fellow in New Hampshire and it was registered as a Motor Home. They also have very low sales tax rates on vehicles up there.

  • My '95 Roadtrek Versatile got registered in MI. as a '94 Dodge van. It is a lot less money for me so I didn't try to correct them. They are always right.
  • suggest you check with the State DMV for a definitive answer...anything else could be an opinion or a guess.

    They will determine for you with the VIN ( not the Chevy chassis VIN, but the RT VIN)

    Each State has it's own policies.

    For instance my 1974 Blazer is a "Station Wagon" according to Arizona.
    It is a "light passenger truck" in Ca.

    the difference between insurance premiums for the class change is about 230%
