Max. Trailer length - NP and state parks
I know this topic has been discusses maybe many times before, but I have a particular questions about those "lengths" trailer vs. 5th wheel.
Very often campgrounds have a max length for RV and for trailers
Example:
Max. RV length: 27"
Max. Trailer length: 24"
So the campsite itself might be much longer, as you need to park a trailer and a towing vehicle there (I would say there have to be campsites which are at least 42-45" long in total)
The limitation is very often the road to the campsite itself or a tight and narrow road on the campsite (not so easy to turn a trailer backwards into that spot).
Now my question: Is there a difference in the ability to drive backwards with a normal trailer compared to a 5th wheel trailer?
In total a 24" trailer + car might be a few feet longer than a
24" 5th wheel on a Pickup Truck (I would say 4-6 feet at least?)
So if there is a trailer limit of 24", would you say that you can still get into that campsite with a (example) 26" 5th wheel? Or doesn't it make any difference when trying to get into a spot?
