that is a nice looking setup for sure. im not a fan of stackers unless you have a toter home - which i dont. my gpa had one for years he used drag racing and we pulled it a couple hours away with a 350 and it (IMO) was too much for the truck.

I agree that 2 cars and a proper trailer (a long single level, or a short stack) would be too much for a 1/2-ton truck. But a 3/4 or 1-ton with a diesel would barely break a sweat towing it.

A 350 as in a small block chevy 350ci engine, or a 1-ton light duty truck like an F350 or 3500?

his was a 34' stacker and it was scary going over 55 mph.
ive pulled my 30' with my ecoboost and it got it done but not nearly as stable as my power stoke. yes a 1/2 ton can do it but i wouldn't want to for long distances.

Yeah, a 34ft is a lot of trailer. That should be a 5th wheel hitch on a f450/4500 or bigger truck for sure. A short 20-24ft 2 car stacker I could see being fine behind a 250 or 350 truck.

Eh even at 24' the height would make a 3500 dance too much I think. My diesel 3/4 with 24' single level flat front dances a bit at 70. The added height and weight of the freghtliner's/toter's block all that from happening. Where's that graphic that shows the evolution of the racer setup's lol.

my 30' is a vnose and pulls great at 90. my dads 30' flat nose had some wobble until we put a equalizer on it.
if i get a new one it will be a flat nose - you loose too much floor space with a vnose.
did some looking today and it seems the 34' bumper pull is fairly uncommon and a good amount more $$ than a 32'. they'll fit in a 32' but it will be tight.

Have you confirmed the axles are square?
Duallys are amazing! I had an f450 and it was great. But it was horrible in snow even with 6 studded tires. And the gearing didn't like to go above 80 :/

Next trailer I buy will be enclosed. Can lock all my **** in the trailer and not have to worry about it. As opposed to having it in the bed of my truck.
