Truck license possible as Foreigner?

[MJCM]

I have a normal European BE license which allows me to drive a car up to 3500kg and I also hold a Thai car license.

 

we would like to rent a campervan in Europe for a trip of around 9-10 weeks.

Now I thought to get a “truck” license here and be able to rent a 4150 kg Camper van instead of a 3500kg one.

 

The length of those campervans and the overal size are the same as the 3500kg ones just you can load more stuff.

((I have already lots of experience driving such a camper van)

 

Do you think it is possible to get a Truck license in Thailand as a Foreigner? I will do the test and take lessons of course so I am not going to use a “facilitator” to get me the License.

ps: I know truck driving is a job reserved for Thais, but I am not going to drive a truck here just get the license 

(getting it in my home country is not an option as I am not a registered citizen anymore)

Additionally:

 

I could add a trailer to the Camper of course to increase the load, but 3 problems with that.

 

1) Not many camper van rentals do have towbar.

2) As we then would exceed 9m many pitches won’t accept us. (Strange enough)

3) I have to go and rent a trailer for all those weeks which isn’t exactly cheap.

 

thx
