SC does limit sales tax at $300 max on purchase, so someone buying a vehicle for $6,000 or $60,000 pays the same.
Yukon's last bill was $91.40, Dutchman's last bill was $271.17.
I do not know about SC, but it is true in most states, but not all. Some require the wt. to all be on the truck registration, some split between truck and trailer.
ND requires all on the truck. BUT, unless you TELL them, they have NO WAY of knowing you are pulling a trailer that is heavier than the truck is registered for.

Commercial, you will eventually get caught. Being an RV, which seldom get checked for anything, there is a good likelihood you will never be checked.
