try towing that way in NY. You won't get very far.

I just watched some guy tow his stuff around. And it was fascinating.

quanto custa um quite deste?
-

i would have gotten a f 450 powerstroke dually

As a professional driver this really irritates me to no end. For me to haul double trailers i need a commercial licence and a special endorsement. I realize my trailers weigh a lot more but the concept is still the same. Your pickup trucks are not equiped to haul doubles as far as im concerned. I have a 2500 HD chevy and a 3500 dodge which i tow with and no way would i tow doubles with either of them. your just asking for trouble and giving "truckers" a bad name

nice setup, the train and cameras!
-
now thats a toy hauler
-
It's also illegal to not stop for 'STOP' signs. Video time @3:50
-
this is highly illegal in my state
-
Thanks for the video. I appreciate seeing how the hitches react in various driving conditions. I don't have a 5th wheel yet, so this helps me out. Thanks.

Loved the video. Great info and terrific video production. Nice work. Thank you

Park, Reverse, Neutral, Drive, and what does the "M" stand for?
-
I don't understand what the big deal is

We used to tow a 5th wheel and a 21ft ski boat behind our 2001 LB7. Legal in Arkansas and Kansas but our trips had ~1.5 hours in Missouri where it wasn't.
-
awesome
-
Be careful, this is "not" legal in all States.
-
dont come to florida like that, its not legal to pull two trailer with a pickup truck in florida.... a lot of times they wont bother tourist but if the right cop sees you it will be a fine and make you unhook them
-
Sorry but a water ski & tiny trailer does not equate to a real trailer.
Now if you had a 15 or 16 ft glass boat behind you this might be worth watching. -
No air bags on the rear axel of the pickup?
