Answer:
"On private property, hunting while in or on a vehicle that cannot be legally licensed to operate on public highways in Tennessee (ORV, ATV) is permitted providing the vehicle is stationary (engine may be running). Hunting from any vehicle, stationary or otherwise, is prohibited from a public road, right-of-way, or on public property, including WMAs."
Your truck can be licensed to operate on public highways, so that would be illegal.

I own a Nissan pickup that CANNOT be legally driven on a public road/highway, although it is operational. Can I hunt from it?

Many ATV's(Polaris, Razers, Rangers, etc.) can be and are registered to operate on public roads(minimum speed vehicles). Does this mean this class of vehicles is illegal?
These vehicles can be titled and registered, but cannot be licensed. The statute specifically says licensed.

We have a college here in our town that has several jd gators they run around town with,... going to the parts store or hardware store.. i'm pretty sure they have a small liscense plate on them..
