That sounds like fake news. My SUV is classified as a passenger vehicle,
else it would require a different kind of license plate like the pickup
truck of a neighbor does. He also has to pay more tax on it.

In California you used to have to register pickup trucks as commercial
vehicles but that's no longer required.

In San Francisco there was an advantage of registering as a commercial
vehicle because there are parking spaces designated for commercial vehicles.
