Lots of wrong information here. 10001 lbs is NOT a deciding factor in making you commercial, there is no such thing as a NON Commercial CDL, and many cops don"t even know what the law is. There is a stipulation are you Private or Commercial. You are allowed an exemption from commercial regulation for occasional transport of personal property provided you"re not hauling something like a tractor to do work for hire, you"re not going to a show where you can win prize money or other compensation, you don"t have a sponsor paying any or all expenses, you"re not advertising your restoration abilities for hire, and your tractor activities are purely a hobby. When you cross a state line, you now come under the heading of Interstate Commerce in which Federal Regs apply. The commercial/private stipulation still applies. Your best bet would be to call motor carrier enforcement in Ankeny to get the exact particulars, and get a copy of 49 CFR to carry with you to prove your exempt status on the side of the road.
