Good looking double tow.
The dollys were popular back in the '50s and 60s when pickup trucks were pretty rare outside of work vehicles/farms and ranches. My uncle towed a TT and 16" glass fishin boat with a dolly behind his '72 F150 in the late '60s/early '70s.
Later pickups became more popular so the dolly became less popular.
We just came off a 2860 miles vacation in TX/NM/AZ/UT and the SW corner of CO. We saw lots of doubles (no dolly) in the Moab area on 191 just like the youtube.
