Double tow the camper for sure. It's lighter and easier to see. Let's see Scott back THAT up. LOL made under Section 200 of the Motor Vehicle Act R.S.N.S. 1989, c. 293 O.I.C. 73-1027 (October 2, 1973), N.S. Reg. 86/73 1 In this [these] regulation
(b) "trailer" means a vehicle without motive power designed to carry property or passengers wholly on its own structure and to be drawn by a motor vehicle
(d) "tow bar" means a towing structure that is connected to a semi-trailer, trailer or converter and which includes an eye or equivalent device for the purpose of coupling with a trailer hitch;
(g) "trailer hitch" means a coupling device mounted on the rear of a vehicle or trailer to which a tow bar may be attached for the purpose of towing a trailer.

Bet he can't! lol But I'm not letting him try, cause he'll try too hard!
The camper doesn't have the frame to go in the middle anyway. Its pretty light duty.
Car trailer is ex-UHaul, as you know, so its quite overbuilt for renting to crazy people doing crazy things. Nice big frame.

"Only commercial vehicles can tow more than one trailer at a time" Unless you're in Alberta... then it's practically encouraged! My friend's truck, camper, quad on a trailer!

Beth did you find that in the MVA? Driver's handbook... but I seem to remember someone on here looking into it 4-5 years ago and determining that a double tow wasn't legal in NS. Rules could have changed/relaxed though.

Yeah, but I really don't need to use it and i don't like borrowing stuff much. Especially stuff I can't pay for if I destroy it.
Its only two events a year taking both the camper and car trailer. I'll have to eat the fuel those weekends. The double trailer would be fun, think of the pics! lol But if its illegal, well, its no fun. Maybe Len's call will be a surprize so I vote NDP. lol
I just mentioned I'm going to put a hitch on the LJ, so I can use the camper relatively local with it if I want. The Ram will do any heavy duty or long distance work.
