The trend of using <strong>dually trucks<\/strong> for short-distance car hauling is on the rise. If you&#8217;re pondering a career pivot and own a <strong>dually truck<\/strong>, these insights will pave the way.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do You Need a CDL to Haul Cars with a Dually?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A <strong>CDL (Commercial Driver\u2019s License)<\/strong> is crucial for anyone driving heavy, long trucks commercially. However, not all car haulers require one. The decision hinges on your truck&#8217;s Gross Combination Weight Rating (GCWR) and Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR). To cut through the confusion, check out this table:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th><strong>Requirement<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>Necessity for CDL?<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>GCWR below 26,001 pounds<\/td><td>No<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>GCWR above 26,001 pounds<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Hauling over 10,000 pounds<\/td><td>Likely, Yes<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Do I Need a Class A CDL to Haul a Truck and Trailer?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For hauling cars, a Class A CDL is your golden ticket. This classification lets you transport a wider array of vehicles, making it essential for car haulers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Class A CDL:<\/strong> Perfect for any vehicle combo with a GCWR of 26,001+ pounds, especially if the towed vehicles exceed 10,000 pounds.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How Do I Get a CDL?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most aspirants attend truck driving school, which could set you back around $3,000. However, several states allow you to test without schooling. Here&#8217;s a pro tip: always prep thoroughly, perhaps even consulting state experts for guidance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re testing in a <strong>dually truck<\/strong>, ensure it aligns with your intended hauling class to avoid restrictions on your license.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">CDL Permit Test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Before hitting the DMV for your CDL permit test, ensure you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Acquire a Medical Examiner\u2019s Certificate Form and Federal MER MCSA-5875 form.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Complete your state\u2019s CDL application form.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dive into the state-specific CDL Manual.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Take the written CDL permit test at your local DMV.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing the right heavy-duty pickup, like the Ford vs. Chevy debate, often comes down to personal preference. Yet, the Ram 3500 HD has won the favor of many heavy haulers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the competitive car hauling market, owning a <strong>dually truck<\/strong> puts you in a unique position, especially for short distances. However, adapting your strategy is key as rates fluctuate. Sometimes, a semi-truck might be the better choice for efficiency and economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-federal-motor-carrier-safety-administration-fmcsa-and-single-cab-dually-drivers\"> Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) and Single Cab Dually Drivers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For detailed information on obtaining a Commercial Driver&#8217;s License (CDL), you can visit the Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) official website.

Generally, dually trucks have a wider stance than regular pickup trucks to accommodate the extra wheels and tires. The width can range from around 80 inches to over 96 inches. It&#8217;s important to check the specific measurements of your dually truck before transporting it to ensure that it meets size requirements and can be safely shipped.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-much-is-a-dually-truck\">Q: How much is a dually truck?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A: The price of a dually truck can vary depending on the make, model, and year of the vehicle. Generally, a new dually truck can range from $35,000 to $100,000 or more, depending on the features and options chosen. Used dually trucks can range from a few thousand dollars to tens of thousands of dollars, again depending on various factors such as age, mileage, and condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-much-does-a-dually-truck-weigh\">Q: How much does a dually truck weigh?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A: The weight of a dually truck varies depending on the make and model, as well as the weight of the load it&#8217;s carrying. However, in general, a dually truck can weigh between 7,500 to 14,000 pounds or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-many-axles-does-a-dually-truck-have\">Q: How many axles does a dually truck have?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A: A dually truck typically has two rear axles, hence the name &#8220;dually.&#8221; It is also sometimes referred to as a &#8220;tandem axle&#8221; or &#8220;dual-wheel axle&#8221; configuration. The additional axle helps to distribute the weight of heavy loads more evenly and improves the truck&#8217;s stability and towing capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-long-is-a-dually-truck\">Q: How long is a dually truck?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A: The length of a dually truck can vary depending on the make and model. However, on average, a dually truck can range from about 21 to 25 feet in length.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-q-how-much-can-a-dually-truck-pull\">Q: How much can a dually truck pull?<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A: A dually truck can pull a significant amount of weight, typically between 12,000 and 35,000 pounds, depending on the specific make and model. However, the exact towing capacity will depend on several factors, including the truck&#8217;s weight, engine size, transmission type, and axle ratio. It is important to consult the vehicle&#8217;s owner&#8217;s manual or a certified mechanic to determine the maximum towing capacity for your specific dually truck.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-media-text alignwide is-stacked-on-mobile has-background\" style=\"background-color:#5dbb48;grid-template-columns:38% auto\"><figure class=\"wp-block-media-text__media\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55-1024x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Nationwide Auto Transportation Quote\" class=\"wp-image-110414 size-full\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55-1024x1024.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55-768x768.jpg 768w, https:\/\/nationwideautotransportation.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/01\/Untitled-design-55.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><div class=\"wp-block-media-text__content\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-white-color has-text-color\">Get 20% OFF Car Shipping<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-text-color\"><strong><em>I<\/em><\/strong><span><em style=\"font-weight: bold;\">f you&#8217;re in the process of moving cars, consider Nationwide Auto Transportation.
