Hi Team,
We are in the market for a TT. We want to stay below 30 feet. So we are looking in the 24 to 29 foot range. In general, we have found they fall into these three classes:
24 to 25 Feet TT: Dinette, Bath, Queen bed
26 to 27 Feet TT: Dinette, Bath, Queen Bed + More Room
28 to 29 feet TT: Dinette, Bath, Queen Bed, + More Room, + Extra Seating (coach, chairs, etc.)
There are slight variations on this but in general the above generalization serves for the purpose of my question.
within a product line, going from 25 to 29 feet does not appreciable increase weight.
So we have rationalized that, if we are at considering a 25 feet TT, we might as well add 4 feet and get "More Room + extra seating (coach, chairs, etc.)".
Finally to my question. Does the difference in size (4 to 5 feet) when towing matter that much? Do you all find the maneuverability, fitting in campgrounds, etc. much different for a 24/25 foot TT from a 28/29 foot TT?
Thanks for your time and inputs.

Some older campgrounds and National parks have more smaller spots than larger.
If you have towed much, size want make that much difference turning, and backing.
I went the other way. We went from 30' to 20'. And the one I just rebuilt has no slide. My reasoning is that we don't stay in our camper much during the day,
and there are only my wife and I.
Unless it's storming, I cook outside and we enjoy outside activities, so,
I set up a Fly Tent to cook under, and sometimes nap under too.
Life's too short to stay in a camper when you can be hiking, fishing, or just visiting.
My best advise to everybody... Buy what you want. If you want a large camper,
buy it, same for a smaller camper. Enjoy.
