The 10,001 pounds or more is the gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) as declared by the manufacturer or the combination gross vehicle weight rating (CGVWR) of truck's GVWR and trailer's GVWR, i.e. truck's GVWR = 8,000 + trailer's GVWR of 2,500 = 10,500 CGVWR making the vehicle subject to the rules. There is no maximum age limit for operating provided the person may pass the DOT physical. Be safe.
