RV towing on 5 through San Francisco
My motorhome including my tow is a 60' rig. I am wondering if that is too long to go through San Francisco on State I-5? Anybody have similar experience?

I know I am a little late to reply here, although I would agree that anyone towing a large sized anything thru San Francisco would only wish I-5 existed....
I only driven to and thru San Francisco streets back in 1982 and 1989 and that it was nerve racking without towing anything....and I was raised in Los Angeles.
As noted, 19th Ave (Hwy 1) would be the route I would use if I had to tow anything passing thru San Francisco.
I can't imagine me towing something large thru Van Ness or Lombard streets on the 101.
One will notice a fair share of transmission and brake shops in San Francisco too.
I certainly can confirm that the lanes are narrow thru main thoroughfares and Golden Gate Bridge as well.
It's nice to know that northbound on the Golden Gate is still toll free.
Although I never been to the French Riviera, I would say driving thru Monaco with a large RV would be a close comparison to commuting on San Francisco narrow lanes and streets.
