You might want to check CDL requirements when towing larger trailers, especially with trucks larger than 3/4 ton. Better to know your state's towing laws before buying your equipment rather than when a DOT officer pulls you over. F450 (GVW of 14K?) and a 16K trailer puts your combination weight at 30k, at least where I live you need a Class A CDL to legally drive that.
I’d love a dump trailer for convenience of hauling, especially brush, but in my area for construction debris I can get a 15 yard roll off for a week with a 4K limit for $349, and I don’t have to insure, maintain or dump it.
@@RenovationsandRepair thank you. Tried googling but couldn’t see anything on the state site but apt of people saying under 10k truck and 14k trailer and you won’t have issues in state. Great content on the channel

Agreed
Great info and advice for the dump trailer! I am still about three years and a different truck away from a DT!

What are the weight limits on truck/trailer before you’re looking into CDL and DOT in Michigan?
