double towing in Wisconsin
I have seen rigs well beyond 75' double towing in Wisconsin. I would like to tow my bout but think I am well beyond restricted length. I have a 2008 F-350, a 2012 Sandpiper 365SAQ and want to pull...

For Wisconsin:
TRAILER DIMENSIONS
Total length: 70 feet; trailer length: 48 feet (for trailers, excluding bumpers, stake pockets, air deflectors, ad refrigeration units); motor home length: 45 feet; width: 8 feet 6 inches (for trailers, excluding appurtenances up to width of rear view mirrors); height: 13 feet 6 inches.
If you are a resident of WI, then you can be fined for being over the limit. You may get lucky and never get caught. But if you do, that first time, you'll be crying.
About others longer than what seems acceptable? If they are in-state residence, they are really taking a chance. If their state of residence allows more than 70 feet, then Wisconsin will honor the rules of the other state. But as a resident of WI, YOU will be fined.
Probably not an issue in all reality, unless you have a traffic accident or break a driving law where police will pull you over. Then you are toast!
another thought, if you are driving an "illegal" vehicle and have an accident, your insurance company may deny a claim.
