Resources Pages. Our website is a comprehensive resource on everything you need to know about our inventory, state bus regulations, and best practices. In addition, our knowledge base covers manufacturer video walkthroughs, dedicated bus blogs, and a complete list of state-specific and commercial inspection requirements.
How Do I Know Which Vehicles Are Considered Commercial?
Under federal rules, a vehicle used for business with a gross vehicle weight rating over 10,000 pounds is a commercial motor vehicle, as is one designed to carry more than 8 passengers for compensation or more than 15 passengers otherwise. If you need to know your vehicle’s weight, please refer to your driver’s side door jamb. One of our TESCO sales representatives will also be able to help clarify.
If you are having issues locating important information on your commercial vehicle (e.g., A/C manufacturer, VIN, and other essential details), visit our Help Videos page.
Likewise, vehicles designed to carry 16 or more people, including the driver, require a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). If you doubt, contact a TESCO sales representative or check with your local DMV.
