I see this kind of stuff all the time down I-35 and all of the other corridors going to Mexico. Heck, I have even seen sedans pulling half tons behind them.
Never seen one get stopped by the law yet people here will say you will get stopped by the law if you put 3k lbs on the back of a 3/4 ton diesel.
Yeah I 25 and I 10 are famous for these trains too, from our days in Phx and Albq.
Once in a while you’d see double flat tow setups. A ragged out Silverado pulling something else with a trailer hitch pulling something else. Usually with the front bumpers in the back seats!
But by rvnet standards, I’m supposedly committing a class A felony when I leave the driveway with my camper. - meesdaExplorerCan someone send us a video when he is backing up this unit:E
And get FLT to do the Ike Gauntlet. - ShinerBockExplorerI see this kind of stuff all the time down I-35 and all of the other corridors going to Mexico. Heck, I have even seen sedans pulling half tons behind them.

I see 3 things being pulled, not 4.
Naw, you get to claim 4 if you have your other truck on a dolly BEHIND a TT, With a trailer hooked to the toad!! Lol - colliehaulerExplorer IIIMost states he would be over length as well. I know KS has made people over length drop whats towed to bring it into compliance. It looks like this guy would have to make a few trips. I wonder about brakes as well.
I beleive that would be classified as a triple tow.
I see a lot of semi's towing two trailers now days as well. - Johno02ExplorerAnd everybody wonders why the traffic death toll is so high in this country??

Reminds me of the days when we used to tow a broken down vehicle with a chain or tow strap ( short distance ). Requires some coordination. Then we progressed to using a pipe in the line to keep vehicles from colliding.:R
LOL and the arguments about how long to hook the chain; Some wanted lots of space, give more room to stop. I preferred just enough distance to have room to turn. Sudden stop, might bump, but both close to same speed not a hard hit. - MitchF150Explorer IIIWhat's the problem? Seems like he is not being pulled over by a LEO and not a flame ball on the side of the road either??
Sure, I do see some wild stuff out there too with various "RV's".. But, most of the things on the side of the road all crashed up are regular passenger vehicles and Semi's... ;)

Six different license plates needed, when the bike is taken off the trailer.
That tow dolly doesn't need a license plate in a number of states.
