    towing/recovery charges

    I pretty much understood that from the begining. However.... If you are getting paid in any way for the service then you are acting as a professional and would be required to have licenses, insurance and so forth. Would you be likely to "Get away with it"? Probably, most likely, almost...

    towing/recovery charges

    Just FYI for anybody that might be interested: Landing New Jersey is a small settlement and unincorporated area located within Roxbury Township, New Jersey. A quick call to the the Roxbury Township Police Department, Shift Supervisor Office, the following question was asked: "Sir, I am not a...

    towing/recovery charges

    With all due respect and absolutely no condescending attitude intended: Of course there is no Federal law stating this, and I never said or even inferred that there was. The laws that cover it would be on the City, County and State level. And there are plenty of them. You are most welcome to...

    towing/recovery charges

    My "Reference"? Not exactly sure what your asking here Paul?? I Never said "YMMV" (Whatever that is) or "IMHO" which I assume if your text messaging short cut for actually typing the words, "In my humble opinion"??. If you noticed in that post of mine that you quoted, in the 3rd or 4th...

    towing/recovery charges

    Not in all but IN MOST areas of the country if a person is "Stuck" or otherwise disabled on a public right of way then a properly licensed, bonded, and insured towing service must be used to "Recover" them. In simple words; If a vehicle on a public road or right of way (The shoulder of the...

    a2 and a3 in snow

    That video answered a lot of questions for me. I have seen other "MV driving in the snow" videos but that one clearly demonstrated capability. Basically stock or modified? Chains? (If so, on what wheels?) Tire size? Tire pressure for the video? What kind of normal road MPG does a truck...

    m920 and m1076

    Although it has nothing what ever to do with M920's, M1076's, pheasants or even MV's in any way that statement made me laugh and think of the time WAAAAYYYY back when I was very young with a very young wife just learning to cook. Living in Arizona at the time, she tried to make a pot of...

    m920 and m1076

    With those tires and the truck sitting on pavement can you measure from the road surface to the top of the frame for me? I want to use 16's but I think the frame height will be to tall for the box I want to put on it and still stay under 13.5'. If you tell me the measurement than I'll know for...

    Can you post a link to the page you found that on?? I would like to read the whole document...

    m920 and m1076

    But when pulled behind a conventional tractor (920, 916, 816) can you back it successfully back it up without mowing down everything in the county while it goes wherever it wants to rather than where you want it to go? Man... the RV I could build with that set up..... LOL...

    Well it is not just the CDL issue, it is the $100/month for the tags....

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    But where can I find that in writing? I have looked. My search foo is weak. Yeah, if you can find a link that page in the CDL book that would be greatly appreciated. Now, we have another issue/problem... It seems the only classifications is either RV or commercial, or am I missing something...

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    Exactly - And the whole issue seems to be that if it has a 5th wheel, no go. If it has a flat deck in the back, (Where the 5th wheel used to be) no problem. If it has a bumper hitch no problem. Just no 5th wheel allowed. I have heard that but still have not been able to find it in official...

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    While researching Florida RS 25 I did not find anything to contradict the 30 year age requirement but I did find this tidbit that although not directly applicable to this conversation I thought was interesting: Section 320.086, Florida Statutes, is amended to allow the issuance of special...

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    The 818 would be in the same category as the 920/916, so... If you tag it as antique does that relieve you of the CDL requirement? And the books, fuel stamps and all that other "Commercial truck" stuff? If so, I have the following questions: How old does it have to be to qualify? Do you have...

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    This may be correct, however, as a commercial registered truck I would still have to pull into every weight station and be subject to questioning and harassment by the scale cop who thinks I should have books, fuel stamps, and all that other stuff. EDITED TO ADD: I just looked up the annual...

    m920 and m1076

    Very nice purchase! As I understand it the 1076 is intended to hold a standard 8x8x20 container, is that correct? If you use the 1076 and put a standard 8x8x20 container on it, how tall from the road surface is the top of the container? If you were to tow the 1076 with a 916 or 920, how...

    Hemitt wheels?

    Is the PLS or 1070 enough truck to pull my 18' bass boat or do I need something larger with more traction to get it up the boat ramp?

    Florida MV Insurance and RV Status

    OK, I am talking specifically about registration and insurance in Florida. I have just finished reading the applicable Florida regulations for converting a vehicle previously registered as something other than an RV into an RV. It has a section specifically dealing with "Questions and Answers...
