When you bought there, you agreed to those rules. Now you don't want to live by those rules, and that is your problem. That is why people live in condominiums, so they don't have to be subjected to matters they don't want, like a commercial truck. So it comes off as you are in the wrong.

You don't allege that the other pick up trucks are used for commercial use, so you aren't be singled out. You haven't given a reason that somehow the association is enforcing its rules incorrectly. So I don't see much you have to go on without more.
