blt2rok Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Has anybody went through the motions to change their registration over to a motorhome in Mississippi? I cant imagine it's to hard but can't find any info on it. I would like to have an idea of what I need before I buy a truck. Thanks Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlennWest Posted November 27, 2017 Report Share Posted November 27, 2017 Have you checked the resource gude? 2003 Teton Grand Freedom towed with 2006 Freightliner Century 120 across the beautiful USA welding pipe.https://photos.app.goo.gl/O32ZjgzSzgK7LAyt1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blt2rok Posted November 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 Yes I've looked in the resource guide but no info on Mississippi. I figured if someone down here had done it they could point me in the right direction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TreyandSusan Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 About 1/3 way down the web page (long page - use scroll bar or CTL-F to find Motor Home) you will find the definition of Motor Home as MS defines it for registration purposes. It also gives the MS transportation code location there. The key phrases in that section are ... #7 "The vehicle must contain permanently installed independent life support systems which meet the ANSI/NFPA 501 C standard" AND #6 may be important, too. #6 A completed van-type vehicle, which has been altered to provide temporary living quarters, shall not be considered a motor home. You may have to go to a registration office and ask if there is a form or affidavit to convert a truck-tractor to a motor home. It may or may not be possible or more difficult in MS. Not all states allow for Truck-tractors to be converted to Motor homes.

HERO Maker Posted November 28, 2017 Report Share Posted November 28, 2017 If the truck is a full blown sleeper, then maybe, since it's not been "altered", it might be considered as a motor home. That would probably be the question I have for them.
