Montana LLCs

[Ryan Wright]

Nope, I live in WA. My coach is registered here and I paid the sales
tax here (it was fair, for once, they actually charged me the right
amount instead of claiming the coach was worth twice what I paid).

However, I read a few comments on the original story
(http://www.denverpost.com/news/ci_9333908), and one guy had a great
one. Bought a $300k RV out of state, brought it home and paid $19.5k
in sales tax, plus a $20,000 motor vehicle use tax, plus licenses and
inspections and he wound up $48,000 out of pocket to register for year
1. As yearly registration fees are based on a depreciated MSRP value,
subsequent years would be $10,000 - $20,000, per year. Now, I don't
know if the commenter was being honest, but if he is, no wonder this
Montana LLC business is so popular.
