Re: Drivers license
What the heck is a Class B license? I've never had anything but the license I started out with. I guess I should look it up, but it isn't something I've ever been exposed to with my MH.
EDIT: OK. So if your Gross Vehicle Weight is 26,001 lbs. or more, you do need a Class B.
PS. Troopers never weigh MHs!
