The MYTH is that you need a CDL for non personal use over 26,000 / 10,000 trailer. What you do need is a NON CDL CLASS A for a trailer over 26,000 / 10,000 or a Class B for over 26,000 with no trailer. AFAIK it is the same road test as a CDL Between you and Lbo im not sure what to do with myself. Dont get caught whatever you do, in VA its around $1 for every 100 pounds over. If you get caught they may put the truck/trailer out of service and or make you get it towed away. Also I believe NON CDL trailers hauling cars / whatever over 26,000/10,000 require a "not for hire" sticker on the trailer. Otherwise it would be considered a for hire trailer and thus you would need a CDL to transport it. DOT does not **** around with rules and they dont give a **** what you say or what you didnt know. |

I'm still trying to figure out what CDLs and towing weights have to do with a Focus ST.

That little panel between the rear quarter and the taillight annoys me.
But, I, too, am an *******. I say the ST is a fatty because it is almost 200 lbs more than a 6MT GTI... which certainly isn't a lightweight. (Referencing recent Autoblog review). It apparently drives yards better than the GTI, but loses out on interior room and overall styling. |

And at no point driving this car do I think or feel, "if it were just 200lbs lighter". The steering and turn in feels like a go kart honestly.
The wheel doesn't even clock around, I think full lock is about 7/8 of a turn. |

I was mostly talking about the color matched seats. That is why I said non-black.
