All this talk about Class A CDL has me wondering something. Fellow i know up here in Canada has a F550 which is rated for 35,000lbs. So well over the 26,000 a CDL requires i believe. HOWEVER, in Canada a truck is not licensed by weight. I can drive that truck/trailer combo with my regular Class 5 license, the same one that all the population uses to drive their Civic around.
Once i cross the border, am i illegal? As the truck/trailer can easily weigh over 26,000, however it is still a non-commercial truck. Anyone know? ive gotten about 3 different answers calling various agencies in Montana and Idaho, the most likely places for me to go.
