ordinary drivers license is fine for all RV's in your state.
Your DOGS could be a sort of problem as some parks have breed restrictions and limits on the number of dogs (usually 2) just so you are aware.
Leaving the generator running some places is not allowed as some federal, state and local parks have generator use hours and a few actually ban usage. It is also a bad idea when you are gone if the dogs are in the rig. Genny stops dogs cook
A MH is a treated like a home for Tax purposes and loans can be 15 years.
The process of buying a MH is a topic unto itself and if you are shopping new the thinking is you should be looking to get about 30% (thirty) off list. List price for the rig can vary among dealers for the exact same unit so be careful.
Quoted from PA DMV website, Non-commercial driver's licenses:
"CLASS A (minimum age 18): Required to operate any combination of vehicles with a gross weight rating of 26,001 pounds or more, where the vehicle(s) being towed is/are in excess of 10,000 pounds. Example: Recreational Vehicle, when the towing vehicle is rated at 11,000 pounds and the vehicle towed is rated at 15,500 pounds (total combination weight of 26,500 pounds)."
"CLASS B (minimum age 18): Required to operate any single vehicle rated in excess of 26,000 pounds. Example: Motor homes rated at 26,001 pounds or more."
