We tow a 34’tt without too much difficulty on the road but we use a 3/4 ton truck and an expensive Hensley hitch. We did it for a year with a 1/2 ton truck which pulled fine but wasn’t as stable. Gas stations and parking lots can take a little pre planning but we haven’t found anything that we couldn’t get into.
Our biggest issue is reserving campsites that we can fit into. We prefer provincial and state parks with treed sites rather than open fields. At this size we are severely limited in choice, maybe 15 percent and they seem to book up fast. If we fit into the site it is usually a challenge getting in or out. There always seems to be a tree, post, or rock in the area needed to turn.
When anybody asks us we usually say to try and keep length under 28’. We love our current trailer but our next trailer will certainly be shorter.
