I concur. The Class A, B anc C thing was dropped in favor of the CDL. All R.V.'s are covered under your standard license. I purchased a retired Texas A&M transit bus a couple of weeks ago, and drove it home, all seats in place, without any concerns. The seats are out now, and I officially have private bus plates on it as of yesterday. While I do have a CDL, anybody with a drivers license can now drive my bus - if I were to let them. Mine is a 37 foot diesel pusher - powered by the "mighty Cummins 555 V8 turbodiesel engine." 3800 RPM at it's top speed of 60 mph!!!

I do advise that you find a place that will "show you the ropes" if you are looking at a larger vehicle. They do require different driving technique, so that you don't run over every curb when you are making turns. It took me about 10 minutes to get driving my bus down pat.
