I've been towing travel trailers and now a fifth wheel, pretty much, all my life. I never had a run-in with DOT, weights or anything like that. I've never been to California either.
So, is the intent of this entire post and thread to warn RVers to make sure their rigs are under the California CDL weight limit requirements even if you are driving the family truck with the family fifth wheel on a family camping trip? If so, it makes me glad I live in Indiana!

My takeaway was that weight limits are weight limits and if you are weighed, and overweight, any number of things can happen. Doesn't have to be CDL, commercial or in CA. Saw a guy pulling a 5th wheel pulled over in NM being weighed by a state trooper and he had to leave the trailer behind. It can happen and folks need to be aware of it. JMO
