So than maybe its because your just towing 1 trailer instead of 2 that gets you by, I would like to tow my canoe on trailer behind my Jeep that is being towed by my motorhome, maybe its the triple tow that gets the attention of the cops and not so much the length ??
Not sure, but I do not think so.
this is from your area of the country

He is using a commercial style puller and I bet he has CDL licenses with over 75ft length endorsement to boot, with that you can triple pull over length in just about any state.
I would not try that on a standard motorhome with basic license.
A couple of thoughts
If it was a commercial vehicle you would have to have an over size permit issued from the state.
The RV is on a commercial truck chassis, but built and registered as an RV.
Having a CDL does not mean you can drive an over length vehicle.
Some states do have an RV endorsement.
I have a double and triple endorsement on my CDL but that does not mean you can drive over length, a permit tied to the vehicle is required. If that is done the state tells you what roads you can take and at what time. Not the case here.
