A registered weight is good only in your state.

What? This is completely untrue. Reciprocity means that your registration in one state is legal in all US states.

My state will not weigh a non commercial vehicle for a gross weight to see if your over that states registered weight period. Just axle/tire load numbers.
What my and other states recognize is the truck is registered legally by that state. Its legal registered to be driven every where.
Your weighted registration papers with lets say a 18000 gvw number doesn't mean jack shitz in my state.
Some members from the north east have said their state registers their trucks at a gcw.

Seem odd you guys can'y wrap your head around the fact not all state use a gvw number like your state, just to register a non commercial LDT.
If a state doesn't use any type of weight for registering a non commercial truck what type of weight numbers are used to determine a overloaded vehicle.

I understand what you’re saying but what you typed first wasn’t what you meant then.
Because you just said the opposite
I grasp the fact that you register your pickup, legally , however that is in whatever state you register it in, and you can drive that truck in ANY state without worry about compliance with different state registration programs while driving in that state.
