Wow! Since my trucks are registered for 24,000+ that puts me about 12,000lbs under my registered weight.:D
Don't you buy GCWR stickers in your state?
That is what we have to buy in CA.
I had F250 with 9900lb GVWR register for 25,000 lb due the heavy trailer.
DID SOMEBODY SAY FREE BEER AND HOTDOGS ????
I had my 11,000 GVWR F350 cab/chassis truck registered for 15,000 and then later 20,000, to cover a heavier trailer.
The minimum weight you can register for is 15,000.
The CA DMV gives you 2 weight stickers, which must be displayed on each side of the vehicle, so they can see them as you pull through the scales, which you are required to go through with any commercial truck in CA.
The above does not apply to pickups. It only applies to trucks trucks over 10,000 GVWR, fitted with flatbeds, utility beds, dump beds, box bodies, other work type beds, or trucks with no bed, used as 5th wheel tractors.
Pickups are not allowed on the scales in California.
