Re: RV Licence Plates

Sounds like a bunch of 'interpretation' problems, but need to know to play
that game.  Used to live on sailboat near Seattle back in 70s. There were
new laws that pertained to the bathroom or 'head' in Navy jargon.  You
could no longer have a thru the hull fitting and be legal in port.  So
boats had to convert and etc.  However, a cedar bucket was legal!  Guess
what people did?  Now for us campers with horses......Do the facilities
have to be built in or...does an good camp stove and generic portapottie
susfice?  We ain't all rich!  But if there is someone out there that just
needs to give me a motor home, who could argue.....But alas, no sugar
daddies left, so we shall make do with what we have.  Mary Ann, Tx

RV tag status varies from state to state.  I believe you must have as a
PERMANENT part
of your vehicle at least a refrigerator, running water and a potty. In my
state you
just have to sign a pice of paper stating you have these.  But I would not
recommend
oding it unless you have them.  You can get seriously fined if found out.
