Particularly for a first-time RV buyer.
Folks who are new to RVing tend to "go large" on their RV purchase, mostly because they can't visualize living in spaces any smaller than their current residence.
They also tend to want to duplicate every personal possession, and bring it along with them.
Besides having a capable truck to pull it, also big, you need to understand that there are many places that you might like to take it that you won't because of it's size.
About any private CG with FHU will accommodate you one way or another however many SPs, CPs, NPs & even BLM access will not. Size really does matter in this game & once you go over the 35-36' length site options rapidly decrease.
Yep.
In my observation, every 5 foot increase in RV length roughly halves the number of campsites capable of accommodating you.
