I am looking at a 12K trailer. It has been rumored I will need a class A license. My state is california.
I have been told I can derate the trailer or get a class A license?
I understand the derate part, but the class A part is really confusing. DMV is no help at all!!!!
Question--Do I need a class A license? With trailer and load, I will be at about 9K.
What is envolved in having a trailer that is 12K? Do I have to have it inspected each year? Are the fees higher? Is insurance more expensive? (PS. I am not doing this for hire)
What is envolved in getting a class A drivers license? Is it expensive? Is the driving test hard(or do I even have a driving test)?
Any thing you know about a class A license would be really helpful to me because right now I know nothing!!!!
Thanks for you help
