Second, there are parks (such as Zion) that actually measure your rig, but mostly they don't.
Huh? Unless this is something new Zion doesn't measure your rig. In fact, we've never run across a park that does.
OP: There is no rule on what size RV to get to full-time. Full-timers do it in all sizes from a cargo van on up. It just depends on how much room you think you need.
Slides don't add anything but floor space and they take away from storage space. 1-1/2 baths are also wasted space, in our opinion but not so for others.
We fit into the same public parks (national, state, national forest, Corp of Engineers, county and city) with our 33' 5th wheel as we did with our 40' motorhome.
Get the RV that you will be comfortable driving and living in and you'll be set.
