How to know the actual lenght of Fifth Wheels
I want to upgrade to another RV. Problem is the RV must not be longer than 40' including the hitch and bumper. The RV's has no standards across the industry on the lengths. Such as Mobil Scout 31bwfs ...

Several fivers have front caps (nose cones) that extend forward of the hitch. If storage is completely enclosed, this must be factored in to get a true length.
I have dealt with this issue lately. Drop a plumb line from forward most part of trailer and mark the spot on the ground, do the same for rear most part, borrow a 50 ft. tape and measure. This will give you the true length, and this figure will not match up with many manufacturer's specs.
