A lot depends on your specific state and what size of class A. 26,000 lbs seems to be a break point between yes and no. If and what you tow, the combined lengths can also be a factor. Check with your states dmv.
X2 - check the laws in your state. usually weights, length - air brakes etc can come into play. It's not a CDL per se, it's a non commercial. Unfortunately a lot of MVA's have no clue on the exact classification or tests. Had a friend here in MD who have a DP where it's the 26k# limit and was trying to get theirs. Took a lot of research and diligence to even find out what the license was and how to test for it. So, I have to imagine if you didn't get it, most officers wouldn't even know to check. It might come into play for liability though and my friend said the class/test really does teach you a lot about your MH systems, like air brakes etc.
