Towing Car Hauler with 44 ft Dutch Star

Looking for advice, suggestions, opinions on towing a car hauler.
Have a 44 ft Dutch Star and have been examining options for hauling my Jeep and HD trike in an enclosed car hauler. Right now I just flat tow the Jeep, but soon to enter into the fulltime scene. I know the con's are mostly the inconvenience of finding campgrounds that will accommodate rv and trailer. Wasn't sure if CDL would be required as many states have their own laws on towing. Likely ATL will be 70 ft. Anyone experience and advice would be greatly appreciated.

You need to check what states you'll be travelling to. Some states, SD, Montana, ND the max length is 75-80 ft. Most states have a lower total length limit 65'

Now will you get pulled over if you are a foot or two over the limit. Not likely but just be informed. Here is a good link to know what's what.

Good Sam Camping

Good luck with your plans.
