With the cargo carrier for the blue boy, I'm just a bit over 62 feet long. Never had a problem or question. I guess I might technically be illegal in some states. In 2015 we towed from Texas - LA - AR - MS - AL - GA - SC - NC - VA - MD - DE - NJ - NY - CT - MA - NH - VT - ME - RI - PA - WV - OH - KY - TN - AR - TX.
Even rode the Cedar Island - Okracoke and the Ocracoke - Hatteras ferries with the rig fitting just fine for the journey.
Yes, when I'm trying to park the 40' long TT combo - I've got to pick my site carefully. Sometimes I have to park the 22' long truck sideways.
The most common comment comes from truck drivers when I park it among the rigs at the truck stop. "Danged - that rig is a lot longer than I expected, how does it tow?"
The most important thing is are your happy with your current rig?
If you say YES - that's all the answer you need.
