Cheaper insurance or registration? Anything good about it? Z71 02-29-2008, 01:14 PM Commercial vehicles are those owned and used for business purposes. Each state handles vehicles differently. Most likely it was owned by a business rather than in a individuals name. More likely cost more to insure and higher license fees but like I said, every state is different. ihatebarkingdogs 09-26-2008, 03:05 PM Also its registered as a commercial vehicle, what does this mean? Anything good about it? You must be located in Calif. Anything with a cargo bed is "commercial". It means you get to pay "weight fees" in addition to your registration. Probably $24.00 | ||
