There are free camping areas. Real monsters I have seen is very large Caravans used in Circuse by the people performing. They can be enormous, with multiple slides, they are custom built
I believe the rig pulled by the Mercedes is 65ft long

No more than 3.7m from center of axles to rear is the rule.

That is to stop " kangaroo hopping" when towing

I know a bit about ocean freight, having shipped 3 boats in my time.

They do it by the cube usually or by shipping container space. That critter would probably be charged for 2X40' containers & top loaded inside the hold.

You have to really want something to go through all of that.

It may have a door on other side as well, but it looks to be a bit to long on the rear over hang but hard to be sure.

Authorities here do not like that. More the case with US Class C's

Here is a uniquely Australian combination. Owner on a forum absolutely loves this combination could have bought an older 7.3 Diesel F250, but the IVECO and the All Composite Travelhome 29ft 5 th Wheeler are what he loves. He has had the the Tracelhome for 7 yrs. IVECO tug is fairly new

29ft Travelhome with Annexe

He is selling it for less than $500,000 Problem is truck is brand new, so bulk of the money tied up in that.
Now here is another unique Combination an IVECO Tow Tug and a local all composite 5 th wheeler, 29ft with a Annex at the back. He has been towing this for 7 yrs but without the IVECO
