RV towing on 5 through San Francisco
My motorhome including my tow is a 60' rig. I am wondering if that is too long to go through San Francisco on State I-5? Anybody have similar experience?

I've driven twisty mountain roads, rocky forest roads, LA freeways, you name it. No big deal. But taking even a small trailer through SF in traffic is one of my least favorite trips. (I've done it twice -- not by choice.)
Unless you have no other choice, do not take a really big rig through that town. It's all surface streets, not freeway. Narrow lanes, lots of traffic lights.
If you want to visit SF, leave your rig outside of town and take your truck into town.
The other problem is that there is a scarcity of RV parks within driving distance of SF. Land in the Bay Area is very, very expensive, as you might imagine.
