Trailer length
We just bought a new StarCraft Launch 26 RLS, the literature states that the total length is 30'11" bumper to hitch, is this trailer considered a 26 or 31' trailer.

LOL. Silly wabbit. Tricks are for kids.
When you buy an enclosed or flat trailer...you think this applies?
Go shopping. Ask for XX length trailer. Then measure what they show you.
4x8, 6x14, 8x8...those are box/bed sizes. This is not debatable people...this is a matter of fact.
As I stated before...the overall length should be known and used for reserving campsites and when you are towing. (OR trying to fit the darn thing in your driveway...) Otherwise, its not a number anyone uses when discussing trailer size.
If you do use overall length to describe your trailer, great. (Obviously you have a size complex.) But if I buy a 26' trailer from you and its actually a 23' box and this somehow escapes me, we'll have words in court. I promise.

Show us an OEM or DEALER who uses the ball to bumper (overall trailer length) in their advertising, model number or ANYWHERE besides the specification chart.
I've bought and sold more trailers than I can count, and NEVER has anyone gone by the overall length. Ever.

But we do pay a personal property tax to the city or county in which we live, that also varies greatly
