Ca. DMV Declaration of Gross Vehicle Weight Question
I recently upgraded my truck from a 150 to 350. While completing the sale paperwork the dealer gave me a form that pertains to Reg 4008, the Declaration of Gross Vehicle Weight / Combined Gross Vehicle Weight.
The form starts off with; "All registered owners of commercial motor vehicles operating at 10,000 lbs or more Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) or Combined Gross Vehicle Weight (CGW) are required to declare the gross/combined gross weight at which their vehicles will operate. Pick up trucks with no body type modifications (utility bed, stake, etc) and an unloaded weight under 8001 and a GVWR of 11,499 and under are excluded."
I'm questioning it for several reasons; I've yet to see a truck like mine with the 3" X 3" CVRA decals on the door of the truck. In California all trucks are registered as commercial and as a pick up at the same time. Unfortunately the annual fee for this ranges from $332.000 to $2,064.00.
Has anyone gone through this process? I figure I combine the loaded weight of my truck & trailer and find the range I fit into.
Thanks
