OP here: Everybody--thanks for all the great info. That answers most of my questions.
Question: is there a regulation size/length for federal and state camp sites? I assume states would vary, but federal would be the same, but you never know.
From you responses, given that I will be mainly in federal and state campgrounds, not private, it sounds like there there are few sites for 40 footers.
From your responses, it sounds like I want an aerodynamic nose, and maybe keep it under 35 to keep up a maximum of sites available.
You can get a pretty good idea of what the size limits of sites are by going to recreation.gov where a good deal of the forest service sites are listed in the Western states. I haven't used it out east so I'm not sure how it ties in out there. Most of the State parks in my area, and a fair amount of the forest service sites can also be found on reserveamerica.com
Unfortunately, while the sites listed above give good info on many of the spots out there, they don't list details for many of the walk up sites, and you can't generally tell for sure on many of the areas the width of the site, or if there is someplace other than your site where you could park the tow vehicle. They tend to not be inconsistent in describing things.
