For a motor home with GVWR 8,500 and fits on the dynamometer, what testing category applies?

• A. Smog Test
• B. ASM Tested
• C. Visual Inspection
• D. Emissions Test

Answer: (B)

The key idea is that testing category depends on the vehicle’s weight and the testing method available. A motor home with a GVWR of 8,500 pounds sits in the category that uses the ASM procedure, especially when it can be tested on the dynamometer. This means it’s not the standard light‑duty smog test or a simple emissions check, nor is it just a visual inspection. The ASM Tested category covers these larger vehicles that are still dyno-tested under a specific program.
