I have a question for you northern guys (seems they have stricter laws).

I have farm tags that have a 26k limit. As long as I don't go over the manufacturers gvwr I can haul it. How would that fly in the north?, say I came up there to pick up a large farm tractor and hauled it back. I know people do it all the time and do it illegally but with my tags I am good, in KY, would I have trouble in PA or NY or whatever?
Be legal in your home state and don't wory about it,if your not commercial nobody cares.the HWY patrol and Dot have more to worry about than pick-up trucks towing small trailers.

Just drive and don't worry. A lot of guys worry waaaaayyyyyyy too much about this stuff. A wise man once told me keep going straight forward until someone tells you to stop. So far, after several years of running the rig in my gallery, all over the midwest, I have never been told to stop. No CDL, don't stop at scale's, no dot#, and I've never been bothered. So if they are not worried about me, I don't think they'll bother you.
