if so .. whats the benefit or downfalls to using them instead of regular plates? Ive been told they are cheaper than regular tags..Been told that they exempt you from needing CDL.
Ive called 2 DMV offices and both gave different answers. One said they were cheaper, other said $7 more than standard tag. Neither of the DMV ladies I talked to knew what the differences were really , one to the other.
Truck I was considering this for will be used for almost nothing other than as a spare tow rig for a 24' gooseneck back and forth between leases 4 or 5 times a year.
Any input ?

I was told that the only benefit to a farm tag now is that they allow you to run overweight. They USED to be cheaper because you were restricted to a certain number of miles around the farm. and beyond that distance you would get ticketed. The Blount County DMV told me it would be more to get a Farm Tag than a regular tag for my truck. That is all I know about it and don't swear for the accuracy. Did not make much sense to me at the time.

I have farmed my whole life, been from Florida to Missouri to Ohio back to Alabama. I ain't ever ran a Farm Tag. NOW I am running an Ag Tag on my wife's car. If you are using the equipment for your personal use, then I wouldn't worry about no weight limit.

It looked like the first pic with the green hills and the tractor. If these guys had something planted, it wasnt soybeans.

I have one on my truck and I know of no added benefits that you get by having one.
I have a Farm and I just wanted a farm tag.

Lived on a farm nearly all my life. Never had one.

I'd like to have one for my old Chevy 3/4 ton, I'm still confused, do they cost any more than a regular one?

I don't think the cops even know the rules when it comes to farm tags. but another way to get around a tag on a vehicle you rarely use is to sell the truck to yourself or your wife when you need to drive it. That way the bill of sale says you got 10 more days to register it. That doesn't work. Try it and see how far that gets you with a cop or judge. By the way, the law says you have 10 days to register it, it doesn't say you can drive it during those 10 days. There are some municipalities that will write you tickets for it even if you just drove off the lot. Irondale is one of them. Those tickets have held up in court.

You have 20 days to register the vehicle and can operate it during that time. As long as you have the ownership documents with you. In accordance with the opinion of the Attorney General issued to the Honorable Larry Prince, Tax Assessor, Franklin County, under date of June 2, 1993, during the 20-day period a newly acquired vehicle may be operated without a current and valid Alabama license plate being displayed on the vehicle, if the owner has not secured a new registration for the vehicle.
