Quote: so a simple solution is to weigh the whole truck and rig and retag the g.w. accordingly ?? or does the non commercial proclamation "NOT FOR HIRE" lettering on the truck exempt you from commercial status?
NOT FOR HIRE means nothing. If you haul something in the trailer/with the truck, you ARE using it for a commercial purpose. Swap meet, car show, little league equipment...doesn't matter. In the "old days" it helped with not having to have log books, CDL's, etc...not anymore.
