2 jeeps and a bumper pull

[nickhuts]

I'm looking to tow 2 Jeeps weighing about 10k. I have access to a 35 foot bumper pull 2 car open trailer. My question is would I be able to tow this from Ohio to Moab Utah and back with my srw 06 f350 powerstroke? Ive been told by a Guy that tows commercially that I couldn't do it with my srw truck and I could need certain dot certification in some states? Ohio included. Thanks for the help.

How much does the trailer weigh??? that much weight on a bumper pull would be a bit sketchyy.. does it have weight distribution?

Its a regular 2in receiver. It is not actually on the bumper.
Total weight around 13k with trailer

check the toung weight, if it is the specs for ur truck, then you will be fine. as far as DOT thats a diff animal. if it is reg, in Co then you would need a DOT, but would be fine if it is only just the one trip. but if you plan on doing it more/pulling lots of weight then yes. at least here the # is free to get.

Its a imperial car trailer Tri axle.

What are you guys talking about when you say weight distribution?

exactly. WD hitches are way nice. i pull 10K on a 2" ball(rated for 5k of course lol but they handle way more, and its solid btw) flatbed two axle car trailer. but i'd definitely find a ball rated for more than that, and yes i knew you meant your trucks hitch but that kinda weight without WD might give you some handling issues on the long run.

Pulling a 3 axel trailer into California is a big red flag to most of the weight stations and one is more than likely will be ran down if you do not stop and stopping will open a small can the is full of lots of big worms.

Been there and have done that.

Should be able to pull it just fine. Just make sure you have a good hitch and ball in your receiver. Weight distribution is a good idea as well.

As to DOT no worries unless you have commercial tags
