You will find far more domicile/registration/tax information on the Escapees forum.

We chose South Dakota for various reasons, using Alternative Resources as our mail service provider (they do much more than just forward mail however), they in turn recommended this independant insurance broker, who happens to be very familiar with the RV lifestyle.
We made one overnight trip to Sioux Falls, set up our account at Alternative Resources, who facilitated registering our vehicles, we also registered to vote there, became official SD residents, we re-insured our vehicles next door at the broker's office, and walked next door an traded in our Indiana drivers license for a South Dakota license. The entire transaction was amazingly smooth and quick.

The Escapees organization in Livingston, TX also provides a similar service. Both SD and TX are free of state tax.

A thorough search on the Escapees site will turn up answers to some of your other questions.

Good luck
