i'd haul it but not through city streets, shouldn't be much different then a few grain wagons

Not sure about Canada, but double/triple trailers are not legal everywhere in the states. I had to get an endorsement on my CDL for it with tractor/trailers.
If its legal, I don't have a problem with it.

For two trailer combinations, the first off the truck must be a fifth wheel type, in Alberta at least.

for trailers i think you're right. farm wagons i think you're allowed 2 but i have seen 3 before so not sure. it might depend on weight or wagon size. also not sure if the tow vehicle makes any difference. i'm supposed to take over the family farm next year so i should probably be looking into this stuff lol

You can add mother-in law to that also. Lol.

I'd give it a shot. With a truck that's capable of handling it alittle better than that silverado

Many times I see a 3/4 or 1 ton pulling a travel trailer and a boat trailer here in WI, MN, IL and IA. Does anyone know if this is legal? If it isn't, there surely are a lot of violations being disregarded by the "law!"

Depending on jurisdiction. Here for example- that's perfectly legal provided the first trailer is a double axle fifth wheel. Second trailer can be any hitch type pull, but the total combination cannot exceed 75 feet.

Sorry for the delay.

For the dash cam you got what you paid for. I had a 50 $ eBay dash cam for almost 1.5 year. Stop working suddenly. Poor quality, sound, but you still can see enough to see what happen at daylight. Night forget that.

Then I did a job for a guy who worked for airmedic and in his truck he had the cr-500 hd dash cam. He convinced me to buy it 300$ Yes they are very pricey but it Worth every dollars. I really love it, and it also look really good and it's small.

If you want just want something to show to your friend what you saw on the road go for an eBay one, otherwise, go for the cr-500 you wont regret it. Just Watch the sale. I got mine with the gps , shipping and tx for less than 300 $ cad.

For the trailer , I think the only restriction we have here is that the total lenght of the rig must be under 19 meters .

That not the first one I saw with 2 trailers, but this seems really heavy, especially for a 1/2 ton truck
