Only with a truck/fifth-wheel combination, one *can* tow one additional trailer (e.g. boat trailer) in California with a noncommercial Class A, B, or C license. The overall length (front bumper to tail of combination) cannot exceed 65' and in some locations 60' where posted.

The double-tow reference in the manual refers to RVs such as Class A or C (or SUV, car, etc.) towing a boat, then something else; i.e. all ball hitches as opposed to king pin hitch then ball hitch thereafter.

I checked into this when I went for my Restriction 42 endorsement at the DMV a few years ago.

Hope this helps.

It should help Lou.

Potential double-towers need to check the actual laws, not a guidebook (the one everyone is quoting that says a commercial license is required). This same guidebook says a 15000 lb max fithwheel hitch is the max allowed. Makes one think the guidebook was issued back in the early 70's.
