Jim I live in Wisconsin and I have about the same setup as you have. I talked to the Fedral DOT man in Madison and he said if you have a rig that is rated at over what the scale says PULL IN.

He also said to make sure you have safty equiptment, triangles first aid kits,ect. He also told me that if you are hauling your own stuff you do not need DOT numbers. I carry a copy of the fedral rule 390.3.
