The specs on the 5th wheel states 12' 6" height. So the question, is this figure measured at the highest point of sidewall or does this include ac height, or in other words highest point of unit.
Normally it is the highest point which would include the A/C. However, it will not include a 2nd A/C unless the 2nd A/C is standard equipment. Finally, since most fivers have a sloped roof, exactly where the high point occurs will have a big impact on height increase with the 2nd A/C.
In my case, a 9 inch tall 2nd A/C only added 3 inches to maximum height. But of course the high point also shifted forward and is now the top of the 2nd A/C. And since this is very near the king pin, towing nose high will make the increase worse.
