This week I'm driving a 28 wheeler. Hope this helps. SBV |

It would have 18 wheels plus steering wheel to make 19 plus two fifth wheels to make 21 plus eight at the very back for 29. Oh oh your one short! Cheers, Ellen |

But if it hooks on with a fifth wheel like I said wouldn't that make it a 29 wheeler? But, wait. Don't those fifth wheel thingies that hook two trailers together have wheels of their own? I've seem them like this. Tractor with fifth wheel---trailer---rolling fifth wheel---trailer. Cheers, Ellen |
