you're in a grey area here. In Ohio, I was told that if I put my company name on it anywhere, it would have to be commercial. If you are trying make it a RV badge, you might slip through the grey area. It would need to mimick other RV badges. You might also need to have your title concur with your badges. Be careful, DOT loves grey areas. They use them to fine and detain your vehicle indefinitely when they are in a crabby mood.

I walk a fine line with my truck too, so I make sure not to aggravate the DOT. At night I even turn on the lights in the back when going by weigh stations, so they can see the light through the windows.

I use my truck for travel and shelter when I work out of town. I can carry my tools and motorcycle in the back, but I cannot carry ANYTHING that eventually would be sold. I now drop ship all the gear and keep my consumer status.
