They kept telling me that it was a "commercial" truck. Even tried telling them it was just a plain old truck, it didn't do any commerce work. I found insurance elsewhere.

Here in Maryland, yes. They single out tow trucks specifically as not eligible for historic registration. Total BS. No vehicle registered historic is to be used for work or any commercial use. So let tow trucks register historic, same as any other vehicle, and enforce the commercial use violation if someone does that, same as any other vehicle.
