If your truck is rated at 10,000 GVWR I would think it is rated at over 10,000 GCWR so the rules would apply to you if you have a trailer. These rules are old and have not caught up with the times. Use to be no one owned a pickup never alone a 1 ton so they structured the rules around this. The CDL rule is newer and as you can see it only applies to a higher weight class. Most DOT do not mess with anyone under 26,000 lbs now a days because they know the horse crowd and a lot of others have 1 tons. If you are hauling for hire I would suggest you follow the rules to the letter. If you are only hauling for pleasure and hauling only stuff you own you could like everyone else decide it is not worth it and just go down the road. While technically you are not legal. You could get farm tags; class it as a RV; ect to get in under one of the other exemptions but most do not worry about it because every one else does it. Not giving advise to follow this train of thought just explaining the rules.
