Just bare in mind that trailers >10k lb require CDL and I don't think you can get flatbed trailer reclassified as an RV.
So in CA you will need 26k weight stickers and those cost about $400 every single year.
Note the the OP is in Nevada and CDL is for commercial not personal trailers. So try not to confuse people.
In many states we can haul 14k trailers with no issues for personal use. I've had several. Dump trailer and flatbeds for personal use.
(I'm an accountant so definitely not for business )
You, Sir should check what you are typing about, or don't type at all.
As you can see, Nevada, just like California does require CDL for trailers above 10,000 lb.
see page 1
So does Oregon if GCVWR exceed 26k
O good grief. Angry much?
How about check your local state for your own rules. No?
For Oregon
A 10k or 12k non-RV trailer would not cause me to need a CDL in Oregon for personal use. It would only require a T plate on my truck. Which i have and I'm registered for 26k combined.
And if I had a 12K GVW or less pickup I could have a 14k rated trailer and still not need a CDL.
T Plated truck requirement starts with 8K rated trailers. Is not connected to CDL at all. You just start paying yearly for your weight class. So i pay for 26K combined rating for my 10,400gvw enclosed trailer and 14k pickup. My truck camper is included in the 26k
