If it was farm related and the pickup was registered to the farm you should have not had any issues. Farm exempt does not require a CDL yet. Although times are coming for the farm industry as far as the CDL exemption. We have traveled into the midwest on more than one occasion to pick up farm equipment and have not had any issues with LE or weigh masters.
They were not within 150 miles of the farm, the farm exemption does not apply.
As was stated if the combined weight is over 26k a cdl is needed.
