Can someone provide a link for what state's this is legal in? I've searched and can't seem to find reliable info. Alabama specifically.

Thanks for the replies everybody. Clear as mud, lol. Guess I'll call the Alabama DMV and see what they say.

^^^^^^^^^This, the only semi-reliable information you can get is from the DMV in the particular state you plan to visit. And I consider that only "semi-reliable" after many interactions with various DMV's.

I've tandem towed for years. I have yet to find a on-line resource that was accurate for states laws.

In addition to the legality of double tows or not, there is another "law" on the books for every state regarding the total length of your RV rig.

Click here.

Alabama:
Total length: 57 feet; trailer length: 28 feet 6 inches; motor home length: 45 feet; width: 8 feet 6 inches (excluding mirrors and safety equipment, and appurtenances up to 6 inches attached to a motor home, travel trailer, self-propelled camper or house car, truck camper, or RV); height: 13 feet 6 inches.

Although it is quite common to see RV rigs longer than your state requirements, as a resident of your state, you need to be in compliance with your state of registration.
