Too big to travel? (45' X 101")
New poster here! Looking for your advice before I purchase a new Motorhome. I'd like a 45' long class A that's 101" wide, but I see there are many States here in the US that you can't drive something ...

Thanks to all! I figured there wouldn't be DOT folks out with their tape measures but didn't have any personal experience in those states. That chart said 8' maximum width in Arizona. So basically you're all just saying go, no problems encountered? I'm looking at either a Thor or a Dutchstar, both 45X101. Alright, now to decide....
The Arizona limits have come up a lot on here. The charts do say 96" for Arizona, but when you get down to the letter of the law there are so many exceptions that I think it makes it impossible to enforce, assuming AZ even wanted to enforce it. Not to mention in the winter AZ probably has more 102" wide RV's in the state than any other State in the land. Every time the subject comes up, nobody has ever said they got a citation in AZ. I've been there several times in my 102" wide motorhome and never had an issue, and I've driven it right through the middle of Phoenix.
