this will depend on what states you plan to travel in. some like tn, mo, calif,can be a pain.some states may not honer or reconize your farm tag. I have only used farm tags in the south and have not had any problems. If the truck traier and comity hauled is in your name and is for use on YOUR farm then you can use your car license no matter what the weight with a farm tag, a driver employed by you needs a cdl for over 26,000 lbs.you are considered a private carrier so no icc number or special goverment hauling permit is required in any state. it is best to put your name or farm name on the door with the words NOT FOR HIRE. this can be on a piece of paper taped on each side of the truck. it has to be in about 2 inch letters.for a single trip you should not need a ifta sticker (fuel tax) but buy fuel used in a state in every state you cross just in case.stop at all scales you come to no matter what.better to stop and get the go ahead light than to run it and be chased down. you will be allowed 12,000 lbs on steer axle 20,000 on a dual tire single axle and 34,000 lbs on a tandum axle.I asume you have 20 inch tires on a rig this size.stay under 13 feet 6 inchs high and 8 feet 6 inches wide or you will need over sized permits WHOLE NEW BALL GAME!!!! try calling the scale house you plan to cross directly and ask them what they require as this is the officers that will site you but you should not have any problems. (if all this does not work for you then do like a real truck driver and go around scales using non scaled highways.JUST KIDDING)
