How Much Difference Can a Single Pound (1 lb) Make?
When dealing with a commercial fleet, it can make a huge difference!
Examples:
Whether a vehicle is rated at 10,000 lb or 10,001 lb – GCVWR (Gross Combined Vehicle Weight Rating) can determine whether or not the company is subject to the DOT regulations.
The difference between 26,000 lb and 26,001 lb – GCVWR can determine if the driver needs a CDL, or if the company must administer Drug & Alcohol testing for drivers.
So, for fleet owners, drivers, insurance agents, brokers and underwriters, that 1 lb can make a big difference. It can determine how the fleet is managed, what type of license is needed, and even influences insurance coverage. View Thorn Valley’s Resources and click on the NHTS VIN Decoder where you can look up a vehicle V.I.N., see vehicle specifications and determine the GCVWR.
