Some people have had a heavier duty hitch installed to remove any doubt about the capabilities of towing a trailer. And I have seen some pretty heavy trailers being towed behind a 5er.

There are any number of web sites on the web about it but they sometimes do not always agree on what each state allows. Note that is often referred to as "triple towing". That is a term typically used in the RV world to describe a tow vehicle and two towed vehicles, meaning three vehicles, meaning triple tow. In the commercial towing world it is called double tow or double bottom. A quick search shows some sites show Texas does not allow it, whereas others say Texas does allow it. Unless something has changed, Texas does allow it. It would be best to check directly with each state you plan to tow in to make sure it is allowed, and the total allowable overall length if they do allow it. Especially important if you plan on towing across multiple states.
