State RV inspections

[nadsab]

Just curious about something. Is there a list somewhere which indicates which states require that an RV be inspected before getting a license plate?

NO inspection in Florida, it is a great relief since I spent most of my life in the Houston area dealing with emissions. Also no front license plate which is a big deal to me since I have a corvette. The only sticker on your car is the registration sticker on your rear license plate.

Well then don't go to Georgia!!! :B:B

That's where I wanted to move to until I found out how they determine "HOW much you will pay" for registration for your vehicles.

In Wisconsin it's a flat rate per year approx 100.00 for MH's and SUV's, less for cars.
In Georgia it is based on the "value" of your vehicle. The newer it is the MORE you pay for your plates!!

I added up what it would cost me just for plates per year on my MH, SUV and toad....................
and got out of Georgia as fast as I could.

Hmmm any 'special reason' we are looking to for a state that doesn't inspect to register the MH in? :B

North Carolina requires state inspection within the 90 day period before getting/renewing your license plate. On the class C it is only a safety inspection, no emissions testing required. Class C are titled as a "passenger vehicle" and the cost is 13.00 plus tax. No sticker issued, all is computerized. Not sure if class A is the same procedure or not. I think the only real hassle would be the state's requirement that the vehicle has to be inside the building. After living here for 20+ years I think it is just a money grab, not a true inspection.

For the record, Michigan requires none.

Let's make our own list see if we can get 50 responses from RV'ers in all 50 states LOL.

So far we have Texas, Virginia, and CT only for used...and North Carolina...

Wisconsin zip zero inspection and no emission testing.

Whoops... posted to wrong state inspection thread. Wasn't as awake as I thought I was....

Jim, "Mo' coffee!"

I do not know of a list. Virginia requires an annual inspection.

[KristinU]

CT requires an in-person VIN verification for initial registration (on used units, not sure about new)

[USARMYCW]

TEXAS requires an inspection annually.

any "list" other than state produced would be suspect. check with specific DMVs for this information. Texas requires them periodically.
