I tow a fifth wheel mounted camper/travel-trailer/horse-trailer. What is my vehicle classification?
Vehicle classification is based on the height of the vehicle over the first two axles, including any trailer, and the total number of axles. A vehicle’s combination is considered HIGH if the height of the vehicle over the first two axles is 7’6″ or greater. For example, a 2-axle pick-up truck with a 2-axle 5th wheel trailer, 7’6″ or greater, which extends forward over the rear axle, would be classified as a 4H. Using this same logic, a 2-axle pick-up truck with a 3-axle 5th wheel trailer, 7’6″ or greater, would be classified as a 5H. E-ZPass discounts are available for these vehicle combinations; however, special tags are required that must be programmed specifically for the specific vehicle combination. To be eligible, customers must first have an established E-ZPass account with the New York E-ZPass Customer Service Center. There are no discounted rates available to cash customers.
