[Silly Little Cars] Cargo body type

[via Silly_little_cars]

Thank you! This is for San Francisco where at downtown most parking meters are for commercial vehicles I read at the CA DMV that one definition of a commercial vehicle is if is use primarily for transportation of property, I hoped that with a cargo body you could make the claim that that is exactly what you're doing such as transforming it into a hotdog vending vehicle. Your input is greatly appreciated! Alex.

While you may have a commercial plate for the state, some cities will require you to have carry specialized windshield permits as well, which is essentially a year's worth of parking for several hundred dollars.  You're still limited to the time specified on the loading zone sign, which is usually 30 minutes.
