Do you need CDL for RV or motor homes?
People who transport them from the manufacturer to the dealerships might in the instances of RVs which have a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating in excess of 26,000 lbs., but that's because they're operating them on a commercial basis. For recreational use, RVs are exempt from CDL requirements, as well as from having to cross scales at weigh stations. Unfortunately, RVs are dangerously unregulated, and thus, the most unqualified drivers can operate the largest Class A motorhomes without any upgrading of their licence or additional training in most states.
What licence you actually need depends on your state, since it is the states which are given jurisdiction over these, due to them not being regulated by FMCSA. The more influential retirees are in your state of residence, the more lax the requirements are likely to be. In a lot of states, you can drive any size motor home on the same licence you'd need to drive a regular passenger car. Some states may require either a non-CDL Class B licence, or else a Chauffeur's licence with an endorsement for large motor homes. As I do not know your state of residence, I cannot tell you what the regs are for your state.
