Haha, shhhhhhh!!!!!!!!

Pulls like a dream. Funny story, I was a career mechanic before jumping to the corporate world.

I bought that truck while working for a Chevrolet dealership! Almost got me fired!

The shakedown weekend went perfectly, I learned a lot and it was a great time. Only damper was wet firewood so no nightly fire.

It's great to see a ranger being used to tow! I had a 1998 ranger and those are some tough little trucks!

WOW, that's some pretty handy information Bryce.
Thanks for putting this out there.

Don't live by that info at that link. Check with the portal states your traveling. As long as you're on the Interstate highways in the states in between the portals you will be fine. Also, towing one other trailer behind a 5th wheel (like the pic above) is considered double trailer towing, not triple tow. Triple tow would be 3 trailers.

Semantics...I think it might depend of where you are from or standing at the moment (Camper/trailer/RV or Soda/Pop/Coke) I've seen it called both but for the purpose of that link, it's refereed to as Triple Tow

this link has a map, and it looks like it's not allowed mostly on the East coast and PNW. and refers to it as Double Tow but doesn't get into much on the details (like some states the one in the middle must be a 5th wheel and max lengths)
