another superduty TAX!!!!
well if you plan on purchasing a new 450-550 superduty to hual with, plan on paying 12% tax. add that 12% on top of a 60k+ truck... there is a 8 page book on the new F.E.T from the IRS......

Is this the ruling that determines that your pickup is a "tractor-trailer" when you have a brake controller and put a GN or 5th wheel hitch in the bed? If so, that's one of the dumbest things I've seen them come up with since they screwed the home-office rules up back in the late 80s.
What's the pub number on that rule book?

the new tax is on f450 & 550 gmc 4500 5500 and some frieghtliner trucks. it is called the luxury hualer tax... the only way to avoid the tax is.
a flat bed with no hitches or dump bed.
a reg truck bed.
install the hualer bed with all the hitches after the first retail sale..

Not all the truck are subject to the tax. They do have exclusions. If you get a regular truck bed then you can have a hitch as long as it can be removed or hidden so that you have full access to the bed. Also the GVWR exclusion is 33k or less. Cowboy cadillac has a link on their website if you want to read the whole thing.
