***Warning.. i am talking out my ass***

I believe it is illigal in all 50 states to tow more then one trailer with a passenger vehicle..

I've seen convoys going south to mexico with a single truck pulling 2 vehicles quite a few times. Dunno if it's legal though.

I know it is legal in Arkansas. I have pulled our 29 foot camper, with our ski boat behind it several times. I think in most states they just have a maximum legal length and weight. As long as you are below that then you will be ok.

Yes you are talking out your ass. I have a buddy who makes and sells deer blinds and delivers them all across the country. At least 75% of the time he is pulling two trailers tandem.

I found this with a bit of Googling.

(http://www.trophyfishing.com/pdf/towing-guide8.pdf)50 States Towing Guide (http://www.towingworld.com/articles/TowingLaws.htm)

It looks like quite a few states do NOT allow triple-tow, but the states Flores will pass through DO allow it.

There is a maximum combined length of 70' in Colorado, though, so keep that in mind.
