Pros and cons of purchasing out of state
We are looking at purchasing a Jayco TT out of state. We live in TN and are finding better deals in OH and IL. Are there any reasons we shouldn't do this? What are your experiences with purchasing out...

A dealer should know how to handle this, no problem. Call your county clerk if you have questions. I don't know if out of state dealers are required to collect TN sales tax or not. Probably are. Chances are the dealer will collect the sales tax and you will get temporary tags to drive home.
Be sure and contact your insurance agent ASAP.
If it's an individual, again, call the county court clerk. You definitely need to get the title and a bill of sale before you leave. You will pay the lovely TN sales tax when you go to register the RV.
Purchased my class a in TN. Showed my SD drivers license and was given a temporary plate good for 30 days. Paid no sales tax or vehicle tag in TN. Drove to SD and paid all taxes there. Bill of sale given on the spot. Title was mailed to me within a week. I got a copy on the purchase date, when my cashier check cash title was sent to me. This was through a dealer. Did the same with my toad. Purchased in GA. No problem.
