Question Scotty at the DMV doesn't know!

Today I went to register my 1995 international RV conversion and Scotty at the DMV was confused and didn't know why on Maine title under the body type it says a abbreviation "CC". So he asked management & they thought it meant "cab and chassis" so they can't register a cab and chassis as a RV so me being like ummm.... Ok.... Scotty comes back and says they will go and talk to their quality specialists and get back to me on why it says that.
LOLOL. I left very confused

So I just looked up with this magical code under Maine d0t gov...

There's only 839 of them registered


I decided to do a VIN check


well, supposedly it has a 7.3-L V-8 OHV 16V DIESEL/CNG and according to VIN check.

and the Maine title code "CC" it means conservation commercial.


So now I'm really kind confused.

Question, how do I tell if it has that conversion in it I did some research on CNG and they did do dual conversion diesels

Does that raise the value of my rig how do I tell if it's really there or not?

Bring it to a diesel shop and ask them. They will be able to tell what or whether any components for CNG are installed.

And in my opinion no, it doesn't raise the value of the rig. If anything, it lowers it because now a buyer doesn't have a standard diesel rig but something more...exotic...which means higher costs in the shop almost no matter what.

Does it currently run on diesel?

And have you already started on the conversion to skoolie?

Yeah it runs on diesel and I see no tanks where CNG would go.. now registered as a motorhome so must have been a typo on the old title ..

ive seen that before in relation to the T444E.. im guessing what it means is that a CNG version was offered (though ive never seen one in person).. it was more common to see gas engines that ran on gasoline or CNG (and could be switched easily)..
