Nevada requires a noncommercial class A license to pull a trailer over 10 000 pounds with a GCWR over 26 000 pounds. It requires a class B to drive a vehicle over 26 000 pounds, and limits a trailer to less than 10 000 pounds. I've had a class B for years for the fire department, but was in noncompliance when I got the Montana. Didn't really bother me for a while; figured maybe I could talk my way out of any encounter. Decided last year that that wasn't the best approach and upgraded to a class A.

In Nevada, the CDL is only required when you drive any class A, B, and certain class C vehicles involved in commerce. I think this is true in most states, but not all by any means.
