MI Michigan insurance and registration

[ToddJK]

So are you still running with your FDC or have you deleted that? What are you doing for filtering that waste oil? I was thinking about a set up for waste oil treatment. Maybe just pumping it through a series of filters from a collection tank to a clean oil tank. What do you do?

Yeah, still running the fdc for now. For filtering, I use 2 different filter socks that's meant for petroleum products, a 50 micron and a 10 micron. The 10 takes much longer and I only use it if the oil seemed really dirty. Otherwise I primarily use the 50 micron, I figured the fuel filters on the truck will catch the smaller stuff and I plan on changing those every so often anyway. I also throw some magnets in the filter sock to catch some metal if any.
My jet fuel is in a big tote, but I filter that through the sock into a 55 gallon drum I got from work and then pump that into the fuel tank. I suppose you could use a couple drums and filter from one to the other using a smaller filter, but I'd definitely invest in a nice pump, air or electric, I use a hand crank and my arms get tired after a while.

Hello everyone. New here, new hobby idea, and have read that this is the place to go for answers.

I've done a lot of browsing about information related to insuring and registering a m35a2 in Michigan. Id assume my answer is somewhere in older posts but I have yet to come up with it. So I'm reaching out to any other current or former michiganders with some experience going through the process. First off from what I can tell, here in Michigan no cdl is required for a m35a2 in stock configuration with 3 axles, as it doesn't break the 26,001 pound mark, and I would not be using it in a commercial capacity. At least on the Sos site it makes it seem that way. Is that correct? I've looked at some m35a2s and would be getting one with a state title already in place, just needing to get it swapped to Michigan and registered. I would be looking to drive routinely on road through the summer months say may-october. Options for registering? And obviously would need insurance, any recommendations here in Michigan? Or better places outside the state? Thanks in advance, happy to have found this community.
