I believe you need option code cgo vs c7a.  CGO goes with 20" tires where c7a is the other sizes.  

 

#iworkforGM 

Order guide says C7A is not available on Denali trim.

 

Is there a work around?

Try CGO 

Can't find CGO.

 

Did a little more digging.

For 2019 model, C7A was freeflow, and 10,000lb, required L5P and crew cab on any sierra trim.

 

For 2020, C7A showed the restrictions in previous post.

It's only going to become an issue if something happens. My business owns the truck and I have a DOT# but registered my truck as non-commercial in Minnesota. Still though, when i hookup to my 14k# flatbed trailer and go get a large part for work technically i would need those numbers.    No one will bother me though........ until something happens.

Did you actually put the numbers on your truck Or you just have the actual number in your records

So I'm not 'knowledgeable' about Cali DMV rules, but, I had a quick look at their site, and the above page, at section .0190 Weight Fees for Commercial Vehicles With a Declared Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) of 10,000 Pounds or Less (Effective 01/01/2002) (CVC §9400)

 

Any chance you are mixing GVWR and GWR?

 

GVWR is the amount the vehicle and load can weight.

GVR is just the weight of the vehicle

 

(and GCWR is weight of truck+trailer+loads)

 

A quick look suggests to may that the fees just depend on what the GVR of the truck (ie what it actually weighs, before loads are added) rather than the GVWR which is what it is rated to weigh when loaded.

 

I'm assuming you don't pull a trailer, so the 26,000 pound commercial requirement isn't an issue. (or if you do, the trailer is small enough the the GCWR (rating for when truck and trailer are both at maximum load)

 

(Maybe I missed something in your explanation , or meed to spend more time at the DMV site)

I’m more concerned with the dot regulations, not the ca dmv stuff. Didn’t want to deal with dot and any extra requirements they have just because I want a more powerful truck. I’m just amazed the dealers don’t know what I’m talking about yet they tell me 90% of their business for these trucks is contractors.

@Dan Forsythedid it automatically send you dot stuff when you bought the truck or did you have to file yourself? I’m wondering if most guys just let it go knowing that it won’t be an issue

My dot# is over 30 years old, Nothing happens automatically. In MN where I’m at we have the option to register as commercial or non-commercial. I registered as non-commercial since 98% of the time I’m not using it for business purposes that would qualify for DOT. I use the diesel to plow and pull my boat, 5th wheel or car hauler.
