GCWR compliance - educate me please
In order to be compliant with your GCWR do you just have to scale less than the GCWR or as I think I read somewhere GCWR = sum of truck GVWR and trailer GVWR and it doesn't matter how much you scale? ...

Well, kind of rjstractor. I believe the registration weight would be the "actual" combined weight of your vehicles, not their combined GVWR.
For example: my registration weight is 23,000 lbs., which is a little more than I actually weigh. If I were stopped and weighed I would be legal. However if I went by my GVWR, then the truck would be 10,000 lbs. and the trailer would be 18,000 lbs., meaning I would need to be licensed to 28,000 lbs. But that isn't the way it works in Missouri. They register by actual weight, not theoretical weight.
You are referring to vehicle registration, I'm referring to driver licensing. Two totally different things.
