Just picked up my new f150 fx4 super cab.. However I could not transfer my old Dakota passenger plates.. The f150 weighs in at 5300 lbs.. In NY the cut off to get passenger plates is 5000 lbs.. Has anyone in Ny figured out a way to get the truck to shed 300 lbs?? I figure the tail gate is worth 100 lbs the spare tire another 50 lbs.. I could always pull the leather seats and put milk crates in it then get it weighed.. If somebody has found a better way around this stupid NYS loophole let me know.. Pretty sad that a ford excursion with the big Diesel moter can run on the parkway!!!! Thanks Iceman
