I was a motor carrier for 15 years. Dropped that when they forced us to the Electronic hostage program. (ELD) Yes you can circumvent that with a truck with an engine older than 2000 year. There are several hoops to jump through. First you will in some states need intrastate authority for hauling with in the state then if you plan to cross state lines then you need interstate authority for that. You will need to have at least a million liability with you will want to have at least a 100,000.00 for cargo. If you have more than one piece on and it exceeds your cargo limit,and there is an issue. They can penalize you for the lack of cargo insurance. Another words if you have 3 pieces on your truck there's is a damage claim on one piece. The cargo limit is 100,000.00 the value of the 3 pieces is 300,000.00 they can penalize you at a 3 to 1 so they would cover about a 1/3 of the damage you are on the hook for the other 2/3 of the damage. That can get real expensive real fast. Then you will need a drug, and now alcohol testing program set up. Commercial plates. In MI if you exceed your plate you can get 2 tickets one for the over weight then another for exceeding your plate limit. This gets into much more. Your best bet to keep legal, would be to talk to these people. OOIDA. I used them for my drug testing deal . They can do all the filings and keep you legal if you will listen to them. Memembership is 45.00 per year. This will end all the he said she said. with accurate and helpful people. If you do get into a question they will research it and get back to you. I am still a member with them. The number is 800 444 5791. Ask about their many services. I have no dog in the fight except my membership for the last 20 years.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet).
