AZTLANLC,

Took these from Sterlings site:

Class 5 - for jobs at GVWs to 19,500 pounds.
Class 6 - for jobs of 26,000 pounds or less.
Class 7 - for jobs at GVWs as high as 33,000 pounds.
Class 8 - for truck or tractor service with single or dual drive axles.

So you can definately get a single axle in the 26,000lb range. Not sure how your licensing works in the US, but here in Alberta you can run a single axle with a class 5, which is an everyday license, however you may need an air brake endorsement for these trucks (I'm guessing they all have air brakes).
