The conversion brands we carry
A “hauler” is a factory cab-and-chassis — Freightliner M2, Ford F-450/F-550, GM 3500 — finished by a specialist upfitter with a custom bed, an upgraded interior, and a suspension built to tow. Arizona buyers run the full range, from a triple-axle boat trailer to an enclosed car hauler, so the right build comes down to the load. Here’s who we stock and what sets each apart.
Laredo Conversions
Practical, payload-focused builds with a genuinely functional hauler bed and a comfortable cab, without the six-figure premium of the fully custom shops. We’re also the place to spec a new Laredo to your exact build.
SportChassis
The Freightliner-recognized name. OEM-completion M2 builds with composite hauler beds, factory-matched interiors, and the big-block torque the offshore crowd wants.
Schwalbe
Famous for the “Schwalbe Stretch,” a lengthened cab that turns the truck into a true four-door cabin with limo-like rear legroom and air-ride seating throughout.
Western Hauler
The old-school luxury benchmark: high-gloss walnut consoles, exotic leathers, western stitching, and heavy steel hauler beds.
Summit Hauler
Engineered around ride comfort, with sound-deadened soft-touch cabins and a bed design that helps the truck settle under load and cut driver fatigue.
Luxe Trucks
All-aluminum hauler beds and Trailer Saver hitches across Ford, Freightliner, and Dodge chassis; the sister brand to Luxe Fifth Wheels.
2L Customs
Show-truck attitude: custom paint, blacked-out trim, and personalized interiors that bridge a work truck and a statement piece.
Bolt Custom
Integrated-sleeper, open-concept cabins built in aluminum with vibration-proof fasteners for a light, rattle-free ride.
DESERT LIFESTYLE
Built for the Arizona lifestyle
A hauler only matters because of what it’s pulling. In Arizona, that’s usually one of three things.
Powerboats and Lake Havasu.
Havasu is the desert’s powerboat capital — the Desert Storm Poker Run, a long calendar of lake events, and a go-fast crowd running everything from center consoles to big catamarans. Towing one across the desert takes real capacity and steady highway manners.
Collector cars and motorsport.
Scottsdale’s Arizona Auction Week — Barrett-Jackson and the rest — is the center of the collector-car world every January, and the track scene runs year-round. A finished hauler moves the race car or the auction find in the comfort it deserves.

LICENSING
Do you need a CDL to drive a hauler truck in Arizona?
For personal use, no. Arizona does not require a special non-commercial license to drive a hauler or RV for personal recreation, regardless of the truck’s weight — one of the easier states in that respect. A CDL only comes into play if the truck is used commercially.
That puts Arizona alongside Florida as a simple state to own a big hauler in, and a step easier than California or Texas, where heavier trucks cross into an upgraded license. Always confirm your specific situation with the Arizona MVD.

TAX & TITLING
Buying from an out-of-state dealer: Arizona tax and titling
Buying from an Indiana dealer and registering in Arizona is routine. Arizona charges a 5.6% state use tax plus your city use tax (there’s no county use tax) on a vehicle bought out of state, and you get credit for sales or use tax legally paid in another state.

Two Arizona specifics worth knowing. First, the Vehicle License Tax (VLT): an annual, value-based tax you pay at registration and each renewal, calculated on a percentage of the original MSRP that drops as the truck ages. Second, emissions — and here Arizona is far lighter than California. There’s no CARB-style engine-year rule; emissions testing is only required in the Phoenix (Maricopa) and Tucson (Pima) metro areas, so Lake Havasu and most of the state are exempt entirely. You’ll register in person at an Arizona MVD or authorized third-party office. This is general guidance, not tax advice — confirm current figures with the Arizona Department of Revenue and MVD before you buy.

Frequently asked questions
For personal use, no. Arizona does not require a CDL or special non-commercial license to drive a hauler or RV for personal recreation, regardless of weight. A CDL only applies if you use the truck commercially. Confirm your situation with the Arizona MVD.
We carry used conversions from the major shops — Laredo, SportChassis, Schwalbe, Western Hauler, Bolt Custom, Summit, Luxe, and 2L Customs — built on Freightliner, Ford, GM, Peterbilt, and Kenworth chassis. We can also spec a brand-new Laredo to your build.
Arizona charges a 5.6% state use tax plus your city use tax (no county tax), with credit for sales tax paid in another state. On top of that, Arizona charges an annual Vehicle License Tax (VLT) based on the vehicle’s value, paid at registration and each renewal. Confirm current figures with the Arizona Department of Revenue.
Only if you register in the Phoenix (Maricopa) or Tucson (Pima) metro areas — and vehicles five model years old or newer are exempt there. Lake Havasu and most of the state are outside the program entirely. Unlike California, Arizona has no CARB engine-year requirement, so an older diesel hauler is far easier to register here.
Most of our inventory is hand-picked, reconditioned used trucks — we specialize in low-mileage, well-kept conversions. We also build new Laredo trucks to order for buyers who want to spec a truck from scratch.
For a big go-fast or a catamaran on a triple-axle trailer, a Freightliner M2-112 build gives you the capacity and the steadiest tow. For a mid-size boat or an enclosed car trailer, a Ford F-450/F-550 or dually handles it comfortably. Tell us the load and we’ll match the truck.
