That’s exactly why more people are switching to online RV registration. Whether you’re living full-time on the road or just trying to avoid overpaying in your home state, there’s a faster, smarter way to handle your registration—and Ride Legal is here to help you do it.
In fact, more than 11 million U.S. households own an RV, and over 1 million Americans now live in them full-time, according to the RV Industry Association (2024). With more folks embracing the nomadic lifestyle, streamlined services like ours are more important than ever.
Why More RV Owners Are Going Online in 2025
Let’s face it: motorhome registration through your state’s DMV can be a pain. Between confusing rules, inconsistent fees, and surprise taxes, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed.
That’s why Ride Legal simplifies the process. We help you register your RV or trailer through a Montana LLC, which can dramatically reduce your costs and eliminate the usual DMV headaches.
And the best part? You don’t need to live in Montana—or even visit. Everything is done online.
What’s the Best State to Register Your RV?
Here’s a little-known fact: You don’t always have to register your RV in the state where you live. For thousands of RV owners, Montana is the clear winner.
Why? Because Montana:
- It has no sales tax
- Offers flat registration fees
- Allows out-of-state RV registration via LLC
- Lets you register permanently for many trailers
So if you’ve been wondering whether you can register your RV in another state, the answer is yes—with the right support.
