[QUOTE="skidsteer.ca, post: 8354, member: 307"] Ontario is no better, if your commercial pickup is licenced for or weights over 4500 kg 10000 lbs you might as well drive a semi, same amount of decals, licence and paperwork, logbooks, circle checks , smog test, hours of service all that bs appplies. And there is no such thing as personal use of a commercial pickup that has had any modifications to the factoy box, flat deck etc, regardless of weather your empty or loaded if its licenced over 4500kg. If you can stay under 4500, you can tow up to another 2600 kg / 6600 lbs gross on a trailer with minimal hassel, provided you don't licence for over 4500. But if either vehicle goes over those numbers some a hole will be pulling you over for roadside safetys, load security checks, hours of service records and I have yet to meet a MTO cop that is not a jacka** They love to waste a hour of you time then stick you with a 400 to 800 or more dollar fine. I got put on the portables 2 years ago, weight 4800kg, so they fined me 390.00 for not having a circle check filled out to show them, even though the truck was fine mechanically, which is really a bunch of bullsh*t because I could have had 2300kg more if it was on a trailer and been legal. Believe me I have a new found hatred for the ontario government and the gustopple they hire to stick it to the working man. Ken [/QUOTE]
