He needs to check the sticker inside the door jam. And get it weighed to make sure he's within payload. [emoji12]

Now he doesn't want to do that because then he'd have to admit he has too much truck and we all know that is just impossible.

Thought of this as I drove by a lot full of sidelined trucks. Is there a mileage penalty, 1 ton vs semi?

Regarding the CDL question, for mine it is no as the truck is registered as a RV but in some states they do not allow that and register as a private truck then go by the weight of the truck so in some states you might need a different class license but at the non commercial level.
Lots of info regarding using this type of truck can be found here

I'm late to the party.... RE: the photo in post 2.
I think I saw that rig at Top Sail Hill SP FL last January. I spoke to the
owner briefly. He said the tractor was a long frame like they use to pull
car hauler trailers. He had added a wooden deck/bed. Seems like he
may have said something about moving the rear axles back too but my
memory is fuzzy on that. I do remember the smart car and the 2 tone
motorcycle cover so I think it probably was that guy. He was getting
ready to pull out and when I came back 10 min later with my camera he
was gone so I didn't get a photo. It was pretty impressive up close fer sure!
