The key word is manufacturer's gross veh rating. Up to 26000 RATING you would be okay on a regular license. At 26001 RATING you need the upgraded license. Hauling something that weighs 35000 gross on a veh rated for 26000 would make you illegal by 9000# over the RATING.
Driving the C 70 rated at 28000 even empty requires the upgraded license, even if it only weighs somewhere around 12000-14000.
A trailer rated at over 10000, even is tare weight is less, requires class A at all times, empty or loaded.
These are federal standards, all states the same.
