You shouldn't take anything over about 21' into the Basin and even if you did it's almost impossible to find a level spot.
We stayed at Rio Grande Village No problems with a 32 foot TT. Over all length 65 feet. As with all NP watch your speed. With all the open spaces it is easy to get a speeding ticket. Don't ask me how I know. . . . :M
You may have misunderstood my statement and that's my fault. When I wrote "Basin" I meant the "Chisos Basin". It's the NP campground in the middle of the park with the lodge and restaurant. The road in has sharp curves and some pretty extreme elevation changes.
Your comment about watching your speed it right on target. Many of the curves on the roads in the Park have decreasing radius curves so if you approach them to fast you quickly discover you're in trouble and in the ditch. That's why they're pretty strict about the speed limits.
