I looked into this when i got insurance on my westy.  i have insurance
with USAA and since it is my only car, it couldn't be considered a moter
home, but as i recall, if i had had another vehicle then the there was a
chance it have it considered a moterhome.

The fact that a motor home can be a legal place of residence is
interesting too.  would that mean that if you're sleeping on some street
and the cops wake you up, there is nothing they can do?, or if the
neighborhood complains about a "shaddy van" parked for days on end that
you have a legal right to live there?  Is there a similar law in the
states?  (I know this has also come up but...) and what about drinking in
the van?  If its a home, then it should be ok.
