depends on your dmv.In il anything over 8001 lbs is considered a vehicle of the second division and requires semi anual inspection as well as insurance info filed with the state

In massachusetts only pick ups registered to a business needs to be commerical. I have seen plenty of DRW F350 used to tow fith wheel campers with passanger plates.
