The regs state gross vehicle weight rating, not gross registered weight rating.
It's fine to register for less to save on fees. It's not fine to register for less to get around the CDL requirements.
Just stop stating you don't have time, when you can get the class b over a free weekend. You know, the time you have to do the side hustle, just take the first "trip" and instead do it right.D.Tibbitt Thanks this. -
You need cdl for that truck no matter the registered weight. They make 26000 dump trucks.

When I took my test, I was a farm truck, never took a class, lesson, anything. Just read the book, studied the pre trip thingy, and drive the truck to the independent examiner’s shop. Got one demerit on the test.ZVar Thanks this. -

LTL Dump truck. That's a new one. Most places want you to pull more than the registered weight.

If I’m not mistaken, if the truck has air brakes you need a cell regardless of the registered weight.

Not a buck a pound everywhere but it still wouldn't be good.
