5'er Length Where You Have Issues Finding Campgrounds/Sites

We are in the process of selecting a fifth wheel RV. This would be our first RV of any type. We are considering true lengths of 31' to 40' (Keystone Cougar or Grand Design Reflection). I'm wonderin...

So... about how much overhang is typical on a 5th wheel? i.e. for a TT, a '27' or '28' model ends up being more like 30-32' long bumper to bumper, plus the length of the TV.

Given that the 5th wheel connects (roughly) over the rear axle, is there a ball-park number for how much of say a 30' 5th wheel actually extends behind the rear bumper of the TV? 27'? 26?
