	In Indiana it is legal to tow a trailer with a rear hitch 
and to tow another trailer behind that. I am not sure of 
the law changes that allow that, just that they started 
appearing one day and are said to be legal. I was wondering 
how universal that might be across the country and if any 
states expressly forbid it. Most often it is a vehicle that 
is pulling a travel trailer and then has a boat trailer 
behind that.
	It seems a little funny that someone can hit the road with 
a 130 foot motor home pulling two trailers behind it but if 
I were to hang 3 empty farm wagons behind a tractor and 
start down a back road at 10 MPH with it I can be stopped 
and ticketed...
	I got to thinking about this because I want to go to a 
plow day about 40 miles away and I thought about putting 
the plow on a small trailer behind the bigger trailer. If I 
thought that there would be a loader or forklift there I 
would just sit the plow on the truck or crosswise on one 
end of the bigger trailer using my loader. My S-MTA Farmall 
that I would likely take does not have a 3-point lift or I 
could use a 3 point boom I have..
