Just some information for those of us that run 2500 - 3500 pick-ups all models.
I had to contact VOSA today regarding the GVW of my Ford F250 SD, this all came about due to driving licence and the C1+E and removing the 107 attachment.
Any how I was informed that all US pick-ups rated above 3500kg are automatically derated to that figure (3500kg), when they are SVA'd, and should have had new data plates attached to the vehicle, or the existing data plates defaced and etched with 3500kg.
This has an impact on insurance in the event of an accident if you are max-ed out to your vehicles GVW in my case 3991kg.
Any legal beavers have any comments on this!oh:
