Re: [RC] Truck Ins and Over weight - Roger RittenhouseCorrect you are Ed. I had to call Tenn DOT in Nashville to get some of this figured out. As well as calling RV camper trailer dealers and asking how they reg and tag a LQ RV trailer - It is an RV trailer with a different tag here in TN . The HORSE trailers even with an LQ are considered livestock haulers thus must be tagged with a 'semi' tag not really considered commercial due to the actual use... but also NOT a RV so it is a gray area. I am going to try to find out for Tn Dot how one goes about getting a LQ horse trailer registered as a RV. I also found out I was duped ?? about the MOTORHOME tag. I do NOT need a 'J" tag as I was lead to believe. I only need a 'regular' tag licence plate. That way I am not subject to plated weight limits. Only weight limits that apply are the truck and trailer loaded weights. My current big truck MH has a J tag with a combined weight limit of 26000, this along with the 'semi' tag on the LQ may cause a problem with some highway patrol and DOT agents. Of course I do hope to sell the motorhome soon?? I am going to try and get a RV trailer tag on the LQ horsetrailer. *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 8/30/2003 at 6:03 PM Sisu West Ranch wrote: It is not only trailer dealers that are confused, license plate sellers at county court houses can be also. It took them a half hour to decide what kind of rig my LQ gooseneck was. They finally decided it was a live stock trailer. Go figure. My MT insurance carrier didn't seem to care as long as they knew how much I paid for it and thus their liability if I pranged it.
