About 4 years ago Nevada also made it a requirement to have a non commercial type CDL license to operate a motorhome over 26000 lbs.
I don't need one for just my motorhome but when I hookup my stacker trailer than I am over the weight by 400 lbs, but so far I have not got the new license.
Is the license requirement for the GVWR of the motorhome, or the COMBINED weight of the motorhome and towed load?
Such laws are usually very specific, as in the trailer brake laws here in Montana. If the trailer has a GVWR of 3000 lbs. or over, brakes are required on all wheels, even if the actual empty trailer weight in only 1500 lbs. A pickup is registered for the Gross Weight of the truck and load, regardless of the weight of any trailer.
Both motorhome or combined with towing as I read the new law.
