PA Drivers License Class
I am hearing conflicting statements about license class required. Some are saying if the fifth-wheel is over 10,000 Lbs I need a class A license. Other places say if the tow vehicle is over 26,000 Lbs...

Schlep 1967 had it correct. I called Penn Dot, he had to leave the phone three times to get the correct answer. If the combination is under 26,000 Lbs, no class A license is required.
Thanks everyone for your input.
under the listed GVW.. or actual weight ??
because this- 10# off... skin of your chinny chin chin
2003 GMC GVWR-Maximum GVWR 11,400 lbs.
2003 Jayco 36 RLTS GVWR - 14,500 lbs.
As long as you are not driving a "company truck" with a name on the side of it, you have no reason to enter a weigh station. So they would only be looking at paperwork. GVW. If your truck becomes commercial (company name on the side of it) you are not only looking at different license but also different (higher) registration ratings.
