The 11,500 GVWR of a pickup does not require a Commercial Drivers License. What will affect which type of license you need for RV use will be what the trailers GVWR is. A 5th wheel trailer between 10,001 and 15,000 GVWR will require an RV endorsement on your Class C license. 15,001 and higher GVWR 5th Wheel Trailers, and 10,001 and higher GVWR travel trailers requires a Non Commercial Class A. The endorsement is only a written test, and then the endorsement is added to your license. The Non Commercial Class A requires you to take the class C and Non Commercial Class A RV written test, submit a medical questionaire, and take a driving test with your RV trailer that you must pass before being given the Non Commercial Class A License.
