Also I find it humorous that I believe that the same guy trying to cite this information is the guy that yesterday stated that in Arizona it required a special license to operate a motorhome in excess of 26,000 lbs. He was wrong there also.
I hope your not talking about me.

Yes the RV definition was taken from the ADOT license section. Find a better ADOT definition of RV and I will accept it.
Again from ADOT license:
NOTE: To add a passenger and/or school bus endorsement, you must obtain a CDL instruction permit with the passenger and/or school bus endorsement for the class of bus you intend to drive. Then, you must take CDL pre-trip, basic controls and road/skills tests in the appropriate class of bus/school bus.
This shows that a passenger and RV license are two differt type of vehicles. The license examples clearly show that an RV including those over 26K does not require a special license, whilst a vehicle carrying passengers does.
Again RVs and vehicles carrying passengers are two entirely different classes of vehicles. Therefore the type of vehicle you are driving is reflected by the license ADOT requires you to obtain. RVs are not listed as use vehicles ....the only other category is light class.
To summarize if your 26k+ motorhome was considered a vehicle for carrying passengers according to ADOT you would need a passenger endorsement on a CDL.
