I Missouri You can pull a double trailer (camper and a boat or atv). Can I pull it in AR and TX? So in stead of driving two rigs I could pull camper and atv for a 500 mile trip this would save. Just bought a new camper and really look foward to staying at the park!!

if i am not mistaken, you can pull doubles as long as the front trailer has brakes and you dont go over the legal length limits as prescribed in the state you are driving through.

I believe you can't exceed 100 ft in length.

I will most likely be pulling double trailers to Nats this year myself but I'm not crossing any state lines.

Also keep in mind, when towing most doubles (in states that allow it) you can only have one ball hitch, so the front would have to be a 5th wheel, then you could pull a boat on a ball hitch behind that. But not a ball hitch on front, and on back, only 1. NOt sure if they'd let you get away with a gooseneck or not?
