    Whoa! how do you turn corners lol? I've seen something about doubles being hauled on I-75 in FL. Does that mean you're only driving a straight line?

    actually the truck tracks fairly well. the pup dosent track to far out from yhe front trailer so you have to swing the first trailer a bit wide. the fun part is when you make a corner and get the truck and first trailer straightend out you can look out the side window and the pup is still back on the other street.

    30Below, are there certain routes you are allowed to use with that combination, or are you permitted to go on all the truck routes?

    1 question...why the long tow bar on the pup?you got the biggun and then the long towbar to make the pup track like another biggun?Wouldn't it corner better being closer to the bigger tlr or would that make it a little squirrely like a conway truck with tripples?

    Most likely to get the weight from the rear trailer far enough away from the axles of the front trailer to be able to meet bridge laws.
