Jeff,
I have a question for you regarding this especially because you sell Mopars.
I recently bought a new 1 ton Ram Diesel. The Registration says it has a Scale weight just a little over 8,000 pounds and a gross weight of 14,000. When it was registered here in Washington they put Commercial as the use code. I asked the licensing agent about this and they said they had to put that down because of the gross weight. Never faced this issue before my Ford was quite a bit lighter.
So it’s a personally registered vehicle but use code says commercial (even though it’s not) so wouldn’t that fuel the fire if I was pulled over?
