When declaring GCWR during the vehicle registration process a special tag is issued. When towing an RV without that tag you'll be very lucky if you're not pulled before you get out of SC.

Not sure what you are describing here. We have been living in SC since the 70's and pulling RVs since 2006 and, outside of having a sticker on our license tag that indicates expiration date we have never received a special tag. We had to pay more at registration because our 250 weighed more than our 150 but that's all. Think it cost about $10.00 more. Our RV is registered separately and has its own tag.
