FMCSR 390.5: (which pertains to definitions of actual vehicles)
COMMERCIAL MOTOR VEHICLE means and self-propelled or towed motor vehicle used on a highway in interstate commerce to transport passengers or property when the vehicle--
(1) Has a gross vehicle weight rating or gross combination weight rating, or gross vehicle weight or gross combination weight, of 4,536 kg (10,001 pounds) or more, whichever is greater; or . . .
i believe towing a ffpw on a trailer behind a pickup for money would make you an interstate carrier and would indicate you would need a dot # and insurance.
