Big trucks yes, these dolly's attach to a receiver very differently on the back of a pickup.

The ASH is a little north of 10K.



We ended up deciding to trade a SB F250 in for a LB F350 instead.


Still aren't convinced I did the right thing.

You will always question your decisions. But it is fun getting a new truck. I am like you, I'd be tempted to get a new truck first.

I do have to admit though it's an interesting idea.

I know what the propaganda from their web site says but would love to know if it is truely 50 state legal. The Atlantic Coast states do not for the most part allow double/ triple towing, and would hate to spend that kind of money for something I couldn't use.

Wouldn't it only have to be legal in your home state?

No it is not legal to double / tow in most of the Atlantic Coast states regardless where you are from. In Virginia you will probably have to leave your second trailer behind. and get a hefty fine.
