If your within the wieght ratings of your Tow Vehicle meaning carrying capacity (Take your pick of Rear Axle, GVWR, or Payload based on your understanding/comfort) which has little to nothing to do with the manufactures tow ratings then length is not a problem either. Have absolutely no idea where this unsubstantiated rumor of limits of Trailer length vs Tow Vehicle wheelbase came from. Someone on where came up with a chart of some sort with limits. That chart of vehicle wheel base vs trailer length said you can't tow a 34' trailer with a standard cab 8' bed dually. That's just silly.
Been pulling trailers of all types for over 30 years. Always found the longer trailers pull better than short ones.
