Chassis Cab and non-CDL

He is under 26,000 lbs

 

As long as the truck and the trailer GVWR add up to less than 26,000 you do not need a CDL

That is the GVWR that the data plate says, not what it actually weighs.

 

You need a bed on it.

If you want to go over 65 feet total length then you need to remove the bed, and that changes he rules.

 

Isnt that what I said? As long as he is under 26k

 

This part is not true.

 

my bad. I typed that wrong.

 

if its under 26k it doesnt matter.

 

I'm not sure about that, because I run a bed, and the guys I know that take the bed off run over 65 feet and were already CDL drivers.

I'm sure I read somewhere that taking the bed off makes it a truck tractor, but I don't know for sure that triggers CDL. I don't think so.
