I googled this and saw a couple of sites said the same thing, but I'd love to understand it better if anyone can explain the details.
It seems to me that a revocable living trust, which is what we and most people have for the purpose of avoiding probate, does nothing to protect your assets from liability. If you are sued because of a car accident and lose and don't have enough insurance, then the property in your trust can be seized to satisfy the judgment (with exceptions for things like the home you live in and some types of income and possibly retirement savings depending on your state, but that is not related to whether you have a trust or not). I don't see how any additional property is at risk if the car you are driving when you cause the damage is also in the trust. What am I missing?
I don't see a particular advantage to putting an RV in a trust either though since you can transfer it via a TOD title. Putting it in a trust means dealing with the DMV, the car insurance company, the umbrella insurance company, and the lien holder if there is one. Seems a lot easier to just add the TOD to the title and deal only with the DMV.
