Dear Sir
You are only partly right about the CDL and Trailer situation. When you go over 10,000 lbs on the GVW of the trailer You have to be careful, As some states require you to run what is known as combination tags on the truck. Which will create the need for you to have a CDL. I can legally run and so can anyone else my rollback which is registered 26,000 lbs GVW pulling my trailer registered 10,000 lbs GVW. for a total combined weight of 36,000 lbs. and I'm 100% legal Without CDL. But as soon as I hook to a trailer that is 10,001 lbs. or more a CDL is required. Another thing that is rarely discussed it don't matter if you are driving a truck pulling a trailer or just a truck if you're registered for more than 26,000 lbs. you either have to run apportioned tags or buy a tempory trip permit to drive through the stste. I'm from Pa. and Ohio honors Pa. registration but don't get caught driving in Maryland with Pa. registration of more than 26,000 without a trip permit, because you're going to get one Hell of a fine. Maryland is really a bunch of a--holes.
