Only thing that sucks about a CDL is the BAC limit is .02 then you get a DWI in any vehicle so if you go out to diner with the wife you have to be very careful. How big of a truck are you looking to drive. You can get the A truck trailer w/ anything over 26k for a truck and anything over 10k for a trailer. (I took my roadtest in a 15 ton wrecker w/ a dually on the wheel lift. Easy to drive around and manuver, but it meets the criteria.) Won’t be for towing it will be for driving rigs. That’s a good point with the wrecker and dually for roadtest. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/those-with-cdls/262551)._
