You are no longer allowed to replace it with another mobile home.
Yes, you can put a lawnmower in your driveway. However, if you use your driveway to store your 40-foot RV, you will likely **** off your neighbors, who enjoy a more reasonable view of their neighborhood.
There are RV storage facilities nearby, both covered and uncovered. The same goes for boats - I mean, if you have a canoe you can just up-end it and lean it against the wall in your storage shed. Or even hang it over the sliding doors into the house from the lanai, as a decorative touch.
Just because something isn't forbidden, doesn't mean it's a great idea to do it. There are folks whose families come in RVs to visit for a few days - I personally think that's fine, but when it's your RV and you're using your driveway to store it, it crosses the line of impropriety - whether or not it's strictly "allowed" or "forbidden."

Thank you. No RV. 16' boat. Jet ski. Riding mower. Jet ski and mower probably inside depending on existing garage, or if I am allowed to build a garage.
Not sure what you mean by "out of date and obsolete." Wouldn't the requirement of stick built homes be an update? Or, are you saying the restrictions have been amended but not as they should be? In other words (I have not seen them) do they still mean what they say?
