Once again, none of that matters. FMCSA doesn't apply to you pulling your TT, 5er, or driving your Class A. You aren't a motor carrier so forget there is even such a thing as FMCSA. It doesn't apply. If you think FMCSA applies then get your medical card and start filling out your log book everytime you get behind the wheel. But make sure you fill it out correctly or you'll be fined and parked out of service for at least 8 hours.:S
thats been covered and mentioned many times that as RVers we are not required to be commercially licensed BUT the OP asked for fed regs (FMCSA) on door tag placards (door tag) about GVWR/GAWR which is clearly used with these trucks for commercial registration per FMCSA. Looking at federal motor vehicle safety standard (FMVSS) 49 cfr part 571.110 and .120 clearly says GVWR/GAWR will be on the door placard (door tag} for under 10000 GVWR/over 10000 lb GVWR. The door tag (placard} is a legal fed document according to FMVSS cfr 49 part 567.4 if any one is interested in reading anything legal pertaining to door tag and GVAR/GAWR rating on that tag for that vehicle. So to answer the OP question about the door tag being a legal document its allLots of reading if anyones interested. If anyones interested go to your state motor vehicle web and do a search on how your state interpets the info on our LDT trucks door tag.
