I pulled a Smart Trailer behind our 5th wheel for a few years and it uses a single receiver to attach a double ball hitch. So you could use it behind the truck too, provided you had a receiver.
However, most states still consider it a trailer and you could still be pulled over for towing doubles in a state where they aren't allowed, e.g., Florida. OTOH I traveled through, and stayed in, several states that don't allow doubles and was never stopped, or asked about it. I've stayed in Virginia, North Carolina, and West Virginia, and traveled through several others. Never Florida though.
I guess it's like Dirty Harry says: "Do you feel lucky?". :)
