    Hmm, where in NC is this? I'd like to go to an MV event to just hang around and drive around at. There's a trail ride right? Will Deuces fit?

    Zeligson crane tractor is mobile

    MV RV

    There are Class B sized motor coaches that have Air Brakes. If it's an RV with a bed/Toilet and such, then you'll beat any requirement for a CDL in most states.
