Vermont requires yearly vehicle inspections. Ag plates are cheaper, but restricted use, and you still need inspection.
A farmer is also allowed to operate an "unregistered agricultural vehicle", on the roads around his farm and between farms that he owns or operates. It may NOT be used for "general transportation". BUT, it must be "properly equipped and in good mechanical condition", which means to me that it would pass inspection if it were to be inspected. It also must be insured. I researched this with my agent, they won't cover me on my farm liability, and won't cut me much of a break on regular vehicle insurance.
It looks to me as if I would only be saving the cost of the tag, about fifty bucks, and put up with a lot of restriction on use. I bet I might also have regular meetings with various police officers, until they all recognized me and the truck. Easier to buy the tag and be done with it.
