So how are some of you getting away with towing over 65ft, most states have that limit, some have 70ft like Nevada.
Easy, I don't worry about it. I have been overlength for over 14 of the 21 years of RVing now and have never had an issue. At the races we used to talk about length laws quite a bit as many were nervous about them. Then we just quite worrying about them.
I have not been back east but have been all over the western U.S. and parts of British Columbia and Alberta with our setup and never had an issue.

On edit, I would like to point out that having a name on the side of the trailer is a no-no anymore. This draws much more attention that length because then they don't look at you as an RV any longer, they consider you a "commercial vehicle". On our last trailer we had our shop name on the side of the trailer and although we never had an issue, we opted not to put it on our new trailer. All of this was happening around 2007-2009 and we ordered our new trailer in 2008 and did not put our shop name on the trailer to avoid any more attention than necessary.
