Class A Licence?
Don,
Just to add a little to your info. Texas State Law is one thing, and enforcing it is another. A friend of mine is a long-time deputy who supervises traffic enforcement. If the coach is owned by an individual, operated not-for-hire, insured and inspected, it would be an extreme case to get a ticket for the "over 26,000lb" rule. In fact, he said unless a coach is blatantly violating the law (>15mph over the limit, weaving, etc.) they are not likely to stop a coach. They assume anyone who can afford one is generally responsible and not likely generate a lot of ticket revenue from a stop. And using the "full faith and credit" provision of American law, you can expect cops in CA to leave you alone as well. But I think going through an RV driving course wold still be worthwhile.

California is Class C for any weight of Motor Home until you get past 40 feet in length, at which point you need a non-commercial A.Some other states (Texas, for example) have higher requirements based on weight, often at 26,000 lbs, but they all reciprocate and won't bother you with a California license.Don Bradner90 PT40 "Blue Thunder"Eureka, CAOn 6/22/2007 at 4:51 AM jmoorelewy wrote:>We are about to buy a 1982 FC 35 in CA.
