Washington State allows motorhomes up to 46' max overall length. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/RCW/default.aspx?cite=46.44.030
"It is unlawful for any person to operate upon the public highways of this state any vehicle having an overall length, with or without load, in excess of forty feet. This restriction does not apply to (1) a municipal transit vehicle, (2) auto stage, private carrier bus, school bus, or motor home with an overall length not to exceed forty-six feet, (3) an articulated auto stage with an overall length not to exceed sixty-one feet, or (4) an auto recycling carrier up to forty-two feet in length manufactured prior to 2005."

You can tow a trailer as well but you have a maximum "combination " length of 75' including the tow vehicle. Semi trucks operate under a different rules because the "tractor " does not count towards the length I.e. you can tow a 5th wheel trailer up to 53'.

I guess it all depends on what Washington State DOT website you look at. I also got my info from a WADOT Website and it said 40'. I drove truck for 44-1/4 years and with my over length permit I was allowed to be 75 feet 6 inches. My set was 75' 3" with a long converter dolly and was only pulled over once in all them years by a female WSP Weight & Measures Officer at the Cle Elum scale house. She got out her bridge weight chart and it said I could go to 75' 6" I called her eagle eye from that point on. I believe in what you posted! I don't post anything on this website without fact to back it up.
