Clifford Automotive Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 You can be ticketed for logos on a non-comm vehicle. For the reason willi mentioned. They see it as advertising, and doing so must be done on a commercial vehicle. I have a buddy that was ticketed for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrs.cos Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 So, my mom hauls a 16foot trailer for her business. (she's a crafter and does furniture) and hauls it with a f350 Super duty Diesel . I dont THINK its license commercial. (im waiting for a return call on this) There is no advertising on it. Am i correct in reading that she will have to take a driving test with it, to get a permit for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitrousbird Posted November 12, 2010 Report Share Posted November 12, 2010 how about these guys that pull a tournament fishing boat that has the sponsor logos all over it? Do you know how light those things are? Your tow vehicle would have to be freaking HEAVY to get a combined weight of over 10k. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keeping a log, medical exam, more fees, etc. its all in the text. If she doesn't need f350 she could probably get under weight with a smaller tow rig.
