Not what was meant by this thread but I had to whore a pic. This happened when I was driving tow truck a few years ago.

 

Thought it was funny so I snapped a pic with my cell.

This is a crappy pic of my old truck(for sale BTW. :thumbs: ) pulling my old Subaru heading for Norwalk OH. for drag racing.

I know this thread is in a 1500 forum, but.....

 

2003 GMC Sierra 2500HD CCSB D/A, Keystone Laredo 5W with a 5x8 cycle trailer tagged to the back. XR650R, CRF230F, CRF80F and CRF70F on the trailer.

Just shy of 63' tip to tail (2' short of max length for Mich req'ts for 'recreatational double' towing, so my rig has some room to grow when my kids and their cycles do). My little freight train....

 

When weighing options, I decided that this set-up was lighter than a 5W toy hauler, cheaper than a toy hauler, more interior 'living' space than a toy hauler, but.....it doesn't back up as easily as a 5w toy hauler!

 

You thought little trailers were a PITA behind a truck....try a little trailer that you can't see very well tagged to the back of something with 12' of overhang! (I do have a home-brew back-up camera system on the 5W that feeds my laptop in the truck semi-wirelessly, so that helps a little.)

haha wow i never though anyone could do that.. is that legal

 

Legal in Michigan with a 'recreational double' driver's license endorcement and there are rules for how things are hooked up (safety chain requirements) and weights of trailers and here, the trailer attached to the truck must be a 5W. Doing this is legal in other states, too (and at longer overall lengths!) but I don't know all the requirements elsewhere....I've never run this set-up outside Michigan.

I know it's a ford pulling the boat guys but I didn't have a picture of my truck pulling the 2 rhino, 18' trailer, and my sportman touring in the back of the truck. I'll have to post it later.

This is what I pull daily at work.
