Look guys, I'm just trying to help.
if you want to popo this, fine.
Next time at the track look at the coaches, most are registered in Montana, or Delaware.
This is legal, it's not shady.
See your business lawyer, they will give you the info to make a wise decision, I did.
Realize when your LLC is registered in another state that is the residency of the business, not to be confused with the state where it is driven.
My business is registered as a LLC in Montana, my car is registered in the same state of my business, that is legal.
If the car is registered in your name, yes you must register in the state of your residency.
No one is shutting it down, the sky is not falling.

If you do have a legitimate business registered as an LLC in Montana, then all is well and good, but most people who do this do not. I have had acquaintances get questioned on this in their home states. Montana doesn't care, but other states are starting to focus on it, because it is becoming more common and no longer under the radar as it once was.

Yes, I own a big diesel pusher, and I know it's common on those. I also know it is perfectly legal per Montana law. I'm talking about how it might be viewed in your real home state. It is easier to get away with on a big coach.

Montana LLCs are not going to cut it when push comes to shove in at least two States that have cracked down on coach owners in their respective States of Colorado and Iowa. Frankly, I view it as more of a scare tactic by those States.
None of which has anything to do with willfully breaking State law, when two license plates are required on any given vehicle.

Yes, my home state of Maryland, and many others also encourage citizens to report neighbors running out-of-state plates for long periods of time, and they do because they resent others not paying their fair share of taxes. Exceptions are made for legitimate military and business reasons, but you have to have an acceptable explanation.
It's no big deal on my coach because diesel vehicles over 26K GVWR are exempt from inspections, there are no property taxes, and they cost no more to register than a car.

Being here in Texas, I solved the problem of getting a LLC in Montana, register my toys in that State.
1. No front plate required
2. No State Inspections
3. After Car/Truck is over 5 years old (might be 10, can't remember) it is issued permianite tag
4. Motorcycles, RV's, Trailers, get perminate tag, no yearly renewals.
5. No Sales Tax, Zero, Nada, zip

I chose to register my last coach in South Dakota. The tax rate was 3.5%, versus Texas' 6.25%. The savings to me was substantial.
The all star State of Oregon, has no sales tax on getting your first set of license plates for your vehicles. I have seen a lot of Prevost coaches in the States I travel with Oregon plates.

What makes you think it's just states back east? Nebraska and Colorado were also cited above doing the same thing. It's your next door neighbor who will make the call. I've resided in Texas, California, and Minnesota, and neighbors are neighbors.
Last time I checked, law enforcement agencies in every state welcome citizen reports of possible violations of law.

I think you're a bit delusional if you really believe that. I've been an investigator for many years, and I can tell you that you are 100% wrong.
