Yeah, from what I've been able to find it seems like getting one already titled and registered is going to be the best way. Only problem then is if they're going to let me have a standard registration with the GVWR being ~35,000lbs, or if I'm going to have to go DOT office shopping. I know they...
I was planning on getting one already titled anyway, so at least I won't have to deal with that. Maybe I'll try getting ahold of the state office again to see if I can get a proper answer this time. But it would be nice to be able to register it as a stupidly heavy pickup truck.
