Thank you remdog*1
Azdryheat, thank you, I have posted question to 5th wheelers
Wow, that’s what I imagine boon-docking like!
Fj12ryder: I only interested in scenic stops. Free or pay for park, as long as no trailer parked at least 100 ft away.. Most RV park look like sardines packed in. :((( I did not expect clear no or yes BUT more “most spots are yes or no”
Laknox: thank you
Jkwilson: it will be illegal to tow, law states 13.5’.
Schlep1967: I hear you, I understand about soft ground, I have large yard that I can’t drive without trenching after rain. So if I go that route, I will have to be mindful about rain. Plus truck will be 19K GCWR. (But 4x4 dully)
Bpounds: I was thinking adding 6” by airbag suspension, inflate when clearance needed. Right now I’m trying to find out if leaf spring can increase arch by 6”. So going from 4” chamber to 10”.
Cummins12V98: Trailer is 13.5’ per manufacture (owners told me that it’s more 13’4”) , I was thinking about flipping axle . That would bring it up to 14’. You right 13.5’ is max by law.
