  1 10 truck or truck tractor not used for hire with a gross weight
  1 11 registration of six through thirty-two tons used by a person
  1 12 engaged in farming who assists another person engaged in
  1 13 farming through an exchange of services and includes a
  1 14 commercial motor vehicle operated between the farms of the
  1 15 farmers who are exchanging services.  A "special truck" does
  1 16 not include a truck tractor operated more than seventy-five

  1 18                           EXPLANATION
  1 19    This bill adds to the definition of special truck, a motor
  1 20 truck or truck tractor not used for hire with a gross weight

  1 31 be required to pay the regular registration fee.
