Geoff Weeks Posted 2 hours ago Share Posted 2 hours ago Look at it like this: Commercial is determined by the use, not the vehicle design. Taxi's are regular cars used in a commercial operation, if you went to register an ex-taxi for your car, there would be no problem getting passenger plates. RV's can be as big and as heavy as a hobby truck, and can tow a trailer of any size, have air brakes and everything that a truck has, and still be an RV. Then why is there a problem registering a "hobby truck? It is because 99.9% are used in a commercial enterprise, Almost the opposite of the taxi example. From the outside, a hobby truck hauling hobby tractors, looks just like a commercial truck hauling tractors to the dealer. States see weight on the road, fuel tax not being collected and registration fees not being paid, when they see a hobby truck towing a trailer. Being able to shave the distinction between commercial and non commercial is a very hard distinction to write into the law, and unless it is differentiated, the powers that be will treat it as commercial. ATHS has worked to make the difference be acknowledge. In practice, hobby trucks should be treated no different than RV's are. Unfortunately, it is rarely done that way.

I had a good one down in Bucks County Tommy Tomlinson and he had an aid in the office that straightened out a lot of PennDOT problems for me. Saved me a few trips to Harrisburg. Got me things back fast too. Best part was it was free. Eddie Day Pashinski?
