Hector, kind of...
The main thing in Florida is, you first register WHATEVER frame you buy or build, whether a bolt-together HF or other brand, as a UTILITY trailer.

No one is going to know or care about the final weight as it relates to registering it as a utility trailer or RV, but if you put a BATHROOM in there, it HAS to be registered as an RV, and not a utility trailer. There are a few Florida "statutes" that require it to be registered as an RV--but I don't think weight is one of them:
There are tons of utility trailers out there--those, for example, hauling heavy landscaping/gardening equipment--that weigh a TON.
It's only the TOILET, according to FL law, that makes it an RV.
Here we go again!
