Yes, it is easier to back up a longer trailer but you are going to be challenged at times to just get into your site. You can put a PU anywhere. A longer trailer will not be as easy to get into tight spots.
Very true. Staging is vital when backing a long trailer. Many campground roads are narrow, with trees and other obstacles inconveniently close to the road. Where you start will often determine whether it is even possible to get where you want to be.
If you find that you are off course with a PUP, it's easy to wiggle around and correct for it. With a long TT, it's sometimes easier to just pull forward and start over.
