SE SD
I suppose in most states and for long distance hauling you're correct. But in my state (SD) if you have say a one ton pickup with a gooseneck flatbed and non-commercial plates, they leave you alone--at least a lot more so than with a semi. Even though the weigh station signs say over 8000 GVW must stop, most guys with in-state, non-commercial plates just keep going without a problem. Don't do that in a semi, though.

I know Minnesota is a completely different story.
