This is not to see if you got it wrong or right but rather a percentage of right and wrong answers. Heck post under a different name if you want to.
If I can get my hands on the new book with the rule changes for 2012 we might even cover that later. From what I have heard (do not know for sure) there may be some very interesting changes being made that may help a lot of you guys
John, you bring up a lot of good points in these discussions but I find the whole subject to be very discouraging. It discourages me to the point that I don't feel comfortable pulling a 14K trailer with my 9,900 GVW GMC pickup in NY, NJ and PA without a CDL. I know I will need the DOT registration but there's no way I'm going for a CDL at this stage of my business, especially since I know it's not required by law or regulation.
But as you can see from this thread and your other one there is so much mis-information and mis-interpretation out there even amongst law enforcement that the whole thing stinks.
What have you heard about changes coming (I realize you said not for sure yet)?

He has patiently suffered my incessant chit chat on the subject of tractors for longer than I care to remember, and on many occasions he has put himself out, dropped what ever it was he was doing, to come and lend a hand cranking handles, or loading a find onto a trailer. Although he himself has never actually owned or restored a tractor, he was always enthusiastic and always around helping with other peoples projects.
