[QUOTE="SmokinM, post: 1281747, member: 21382"] You are correct about the farm exemption which is exactly why I said if you are hauling farm stuff for yourself buy it, tag it, and drive it. They do make the rules complicated and if you ask they will tell you you need this and that and pay for all of it. Tag the truck and trailer according to the GVW however your state makes you do it and you can drive it where you want as long as it is for you and your farm. If you just use generic Farm Use tags that is when milage etc. comes in to play. Also try to avoid putting a GCVW ( combined weight) rating on your rig this is where they really get you at the scale house. Rules do vary state to state and almost monthly it seems but as long as your load is secure, not extremely overweight or width, lights work etc. they will not mess with farmers pretty much nationwide. Better to beg forgiveness than ask permission for the scenario the OP describes. He won't have to beg much or often if he sticks to what he describes. Just my HO. [/QUOTE]
