Pull vehicle - trailer - boat
Is trailer a travel trailer or similar? If so I believe the limit is 65 feet. Not sure but I also remember reading you cant do it with a tongue pull travel trailer and a boat on the back had to be a 5th wheel.

Yes, you have to have 5th wheel camper and total length of entire rig has to be 65 or less.
Man up. Fight the GOOD fight.

...Thanks for the info .... Texas towing regs for a triple ...... Max length 65ft Tow vehicle does NOT REQUIRE a 5th wheel. Bumper pull on each vehicle/trailer is totally acceptable .... hitch towing capacity must be rated high enough to pull the trailers weghts. tow vehicle can be anything you think will pull what you are towing.

I know some states wont allow triple towing. Friend of mine got a ticket in Florida this year for triple towing, so just be aware if you travel out of state!

....there is a nice site that gives the states that allow triple towing & yes FLORIDA is not one them. Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico & Colorado are which are the only ones I need.
