We just got back from a 2.5 mo 6k mi trip. It was our first. What we learned was that some campsites are on the narrow side so I couldn't park the truck to the side of the camper.
So there were times that when the camper was positioned ideally for the slides to come out and so all my utilities could easily reach, that there was barely enough length left on the site to park the truck.
Of course one could always park in the parking spaces but that's not as convenient.
Also with some sites, a longer trailer will have a tough time making the turns. In Okanagan, B.C., we had a site with narrow pad AND narrow access road. My truck was barely able to make the turn without the camper swiping up against the trees.
Yes, one could always choose a longer and wider site. But this was all that was left. We had to make a route change during our trip due to unforeseen circumstances.
