when you go to re register the truck just put down the desired weight in the box on the form, they will do it , just dont bother to ask them, sommerville dmv is not customer friendly

Even if you are correct you still may be stuck somewhere waiting on someone with the proper CDL to move your stuff.

Dan, I live in TX also and all you need is a Class A not a CDL.
CDL is for commercial and the Class A is a Non-Commercial version for recreational use for the trailer over the 10,000 lbs. Class A covers it all. You take the same written test as the CDL and a drivers tests also just like the CDL just no physical and no log books required.
Been there done that.
