Towing more than one big trailer in tandem?

[BAM]

has anyone tried and suceeded in towing two trailers in tandem. and i mean the bigger trailers, not the little tippers. i am trying to justify buying the big challenger 550+hps.

[Willow Rivers]

The big trailers cannot be hooked together unless there is a mod out for now.

[BAM]

so is there any reason that one would use/buy the Challenger MT900E? i really want a reason to buy that tractor.

[BAM]

there is now a mod for this. http://farmingsimulator2017.com/farming-simulator-2017-mods/bandit-sb-2030-mod-v1-0/

you would buy the large tractors to use the large equipment, if you under power on the large equipment they slow you down especially on fields going uphil, and also it makes it harder to keep them in a straight line.

yeah, the going uphill scenario is the only one i can think of, other than the scenario of towing two largeest trailers in tandem. problem is the Case Magnum CVX already is powerful enough for pretty much any tools, so that makes the challenger useless for tools, unless in extreme uphill situation, which might have a "slight" edge over the Magnum.

i'll save up and buy the challenger just for towing tandem.

the biggest base game cultivator is 350 bhp i believe, if you have a sprayer on the front thats an extra 50 to 100 i believe, now your talking alot of BHP for flat land use.

I have found out there is no need for having multiple large trailers hooked together.
in FS15 U could unload 2 or 3 trailers at the sell point and the sell price would stay the same.
in FS17 the sell price drops once U unload the first trailer.
before U could unload the second trailer,,, the that sell point might not even be the
highest sell price for that crop.
I found that out using the train. I had filled up both train cars with sunflower seeds.
after I had unloade the first rail car,,,, the best price had changed to Mary's farm.
so i had to go back to the station to unload into a tipper to take the rest of the sunflower
seeds to Mary's Farm.

I have about 50 trailers stacked up at train depots or sell points ready for the high prices, each trailer colour coded

Yellow for my potatos
Purple for sugerbeats
Green for wood chips

So far as I say I got 50 ready with different products parked up around the map, yes they cost a small fortune but kinda thinking/roleplaying that I use a distrubution company handling all my transport arangements so it a matter of a phone call requesting a empty trailer lol

Because 17 has been out for years and 19 the modding tools have not been made available by Giants yet.

It seems I am unable to download that mod from that site (it wants me to add a million extentions to my web browser which I will not do).
Is it available anywhere else?

[Tiger]

if it was a good legitimate mod why does it not apply to mod hub so people can use it ?

I use this mod "Custom Road Trains" and it works good. If website is in German? just click on American flag to right if required.
