Class-C can tow:
Travel Trailers (any bumper pull trailer) 10,000 GVWR or less
5th wheel 10,000 GVWR or less
* up to 15,000 GVWR if you add the "5th wheel endorsement" (which is a like 18 question written multiple choice exam and a medical survey)
Class-A non-commercial can tow:
All Class-C stuff
Travel Trailers over 10,000 GVWR
5th wheel trailers over 15,000 GVWR
My trailer is 12,800 GVWR. I need my class-a non commercial (its a travel trailer toy hauler)
I am going to schedule my skills test prob for sometime in Feb.
Read everything you can about other peoples experiences. There is a lot of okay information on the internet, but you need to sift through the garbage.
Class A Written Test is easy - but you need to study for it. Re-take at least one side of the Class C written test if you have not done so in the last 6 months.
Inspection Test - what is the person looking for when you look over your vehicle to make sure it is safe to operate. I think you need to tell him what you are inspecting as you go.
Technical Test - practice the different maneuvers people have had to do. non-commercial tests are different than commercial tests - by what I understand
Driving Test - Don't forget about bridge clearances. Remember the clearance of the bridge you just drove under, the tester might ask you what it was. Right turns, always end up in the right lane. Distance between you and the person in front of you. Downhills, etc.
