I hope Florida doesn't go the taxation way of NC or Maryland. At some point, it will be too expensive to run MV's on the road, much less own one or two!

I wouldn't worry about Florida.... too many AARP members down there for them to change their tax code and risk them all packing up and moving elsewhere.... I have a neighbor who lives in CT most of the year, but has a place in Florida and keeps all their vehicles registered there to avoid property taxes here in CT.

This sparked my interest since Brutes tags run out 3/31. So here is my question, my RAM pickup is registered as a non-commercial truck at 27,000 pounds. This is truck weight and trailer weight. It is diesel. Brute is registered at 5,000 pounds, MV did tags same time as title. In NJ both trucks are exempt from IFTA since they are Recreational vehicles and are not considered qualified vehicles. So what am I to do? Register deuce at 24,000? It is very expensive at $350 a year. Ram was more $406 but you have to do 4 years so $1600 and no refunds.

I also use Progressive for the last 15 years, they charge me as a private truck, non commercial, for less than the 1988 4 W/D Toyota I used to drive. The tag runs about $145.00 a year.

Progressive has a commercial (private use) classification which is what they put all 3 of my M35s on for insurance.
It varies by state what they offer , every state has different insurance regulations .

Actually. I called Progressive and they would not insure my truck here in Washington.

Even the registering is getting weary. Unless you go the BMV/DMV and get the answers printed out from someone knowledgeable do not try to circumvent the laws, like registering it at lower weight (good luck with any insurance company if you have an accident and lied about it) than what it is supposed to be.
Yes, you will get different answers from different people at a government office and YOU may have to do more work but get it in writing or be able to cite the correct law.
