    Actual weight doesn't matter (unless one is overweight). It's weight ratings that matter. You are in CDL class A due to combined rating of 30,000 and trailer of 20,000.

    If the vehicle combination can carry over 26000# CDL is needed. What the actual weight does not matter, it is what it can haul.

    It is based on what the vehicle can do not what it is doing
