Some states require a CDL, some states require a Specialty License the rest only a regular DL. All states outside your home state honor your home state License regardless of the type, i.e. if your home state only requires a regular DL and you are driving in or through a state that requires a CDL you are good to drive in that state.
Matt from YouTube channel Matt's RV Reviews: Do you need a specialty License to drive an RV?
I saw something in the past week that indicated in Texas if you have a dually truck and and a 5th wheel trailer with gross vehicle weights of both truck and trailer added together totaled over 26000 pounds that you would need a class A license. It was stated that most people in Texas were not aware of the requirement and are towing illegally with that combination.
Texas Class A License requirement.
Texas info corrected. I found the video regarding Texas. It was for Class A and not A CDL.
