Have you registered it there before? If you add your coach and some outher pertinent data to your signature it will save time when you post. See Herman's signature for example.

richard5933 Report post Posted January 30, 2021 Do a little research into CARB rules. There are exceptions for vehicles registered as motor homes - they are exempt from many of the rules that trucks and buses must adhere to, but being in another state I'm not fully versed in this. What I know about it is from friends with older bus conversions in CA, and they are all able to keep operating due to the exceptions for RVs. If you're being told that you can't register by someone at the DMV, I'd suggest doing your research and then contacting someone in management at the DMV office before trying again. Hopefully someone from CA will chime in with more specifics. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wildebill308 Report post Posted January 31, 2021 Ok, I missed the California in his post. Richard is right. Might try a different office. Makes me appreciate Texas. $7.00 for the inspection and $364.75 for a new sticker. Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jleamont Report post Posted January 31, 2021 What Richard said. I am only aware that those rules apply to Commercial vehicles. Sounds like you spoke to someone that is confused, probably caused by the GVWR of a DP coach. That alone seems to create confusion at most DMV’s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
richard5933 Report post Posted January 31, 2021 Here's a document from the ARB (Air Resources Board) which should help clarify things. See exemption #10 10) Motor homes for non-commercial private use; https://ww3.arb.ca.gov/msprog/onrdiesel/documents/tbfinalreg.pdf?_ga=2.92294808.488034646.1612097446-1922350589.1610202015 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
