[QUOTE="Amo, post: 1281616, member: 14857"] Well I called a dealer in South Dakota. In the past I had talked to him & seamed pretty sharp. He stated that as long as your running 2 axles with singles, your pretty safe anywhere. Especially with farm plates, within 130 miles of home in Nebraska. Said you can run over the border a ways and probably get away with triples or dual tandems on farm plates. Said that with farm plates as long as your total weight is covered by the vehicle & trailer, you are fine. He has to run commercial plates. If he is over on just one axle he is screwed. In Nebraska, you can run triples or tandem duels on farm plates within 100 (maybe 130) miles of home and your good. South Dakota will let it slide if your from Nebraska. If your South Dakota with farm plate, you need a medical card. After your beyond 100 miles medical card, CDL etc. Kansas is somewhat the same. Id be over 130 miles so then Id have to CDL. Iowa and Minnesota are even harder. They have no exemptions....which is probably a good thing I guess. So not only do you need a CDL & Medical card, but annual inspection & log book. Not sure about DOT number/name on door etc. I was really liking the idea of tandem duels etc. Begining to think the smaller trailer will meet my needs & not be a legal nightmare. He said an axle could be overloaded by 10% without having serious issues. [/QUOTE]
