Default Trailering 2 Vettes

Wondering is there is a trailer that can handle two Vettes. Preferably stacked.
Will be retiring in this in a coupe of years. Looking at picking up another Vette (Z06). Is there a trailer that anyone has seen that can haul two vettes (stacked preferably). I'm sure if they were loaded one following the other my length would be to long. RV is 39 feet. Anyone ever seen one?

Thanks

They hav enclosed stackers that are about 30 feet long. Might want to look into something like that. Dont know if you feel like spending that much but here is an example.

might want to figure out the GROSS weight your mobile home cna pull before you start shopping.

3200 x 2 = 6400 + trailer weight

Hmmmm?

a trailer that size will probably be close to 10,000 lbs empty at least. my 24 foot weighs close to 5000 lbs empty.

The trailer looks great, but too long. Thay would put me at 42 +34 and I don't want a special hauling permit.
Don't need all the bells and whistles.
Just one Vette on top of another enclosed. Might have to have one built or skip the Z.
Don't know what the motor home will pull off hand, It's a 450 HP turbo.
Have to look in the book.

Thanks.

28 or 30 is about the shortest stacker you can get.

450hp might get it done but the weight of the rv will play into that factor too.

As long as you stay under 65 foot total, in most states you don't need a special hauling permit. Looks like you'll be limited to 42 + 22.5 max.

probably not going to get a 22 foot stacker, that would be one top heavy bouncy trailer.
