However if you stay by the week or month you will probably pay for your electric separately so you need to do a little research to figure out is it cheaper to use electric or your propane.
Now if you are boondocking you won't have much choice but to use your propane to cook and run the refrigerator since you won't have anywhere to plug your rig into. Although if you invest in a generator you can use electric. You now have the cost of gas to consider for the generator to run.
Some other things to consider is the noise of the generator. Do you have neighbors near you to disturb, is the generator big enough to run everything you might want to run. Can you get the generator out and set up by yourself if need be?
Paying the tag fees for your RV and vehicles whether a tow or toad will depend on what state you claim as your domicile.
The cost of tags won't be a make or break budget item, but it is something you need to consider. My recommendation is to buy the book "Choosing your RV Home Base. Available at the Workamper News bookstore.
Texas, Florida, and South Dakota seems to be the 3 main choices that most Full time RV'ers choose for their home base or domicile.
None of
them have a state income tax, all have reasonable vehicle
registration fees, none require that you be in the state for some
period of time before becoming a resident, and all allow the use of a
mail forwarding address for establishing domicile. There are
differences between these states, so some research would be required
to determine which is best for you.
