A few questions:
1) Is a 2017 Ford F-350, long bed, 4x4, diesel, SRW appropriate to tow this?
That may be getting into dual rear wheel territory. Check the pin weight.
2) The specs say it is 38' long. Given the overhang, how long would the above truck and trailer be combined?
Guessing five feet of overhang. So ~21 ft (truck) + 38 ft (fiver) - ~5 ft (overhang) = about 55-56 ft
3) Would the above length be severely limiting? Seems like it would be hard to find parks, campgrounds, resorts, etc. that can accommodate that length (tandem or side by side), or those that have spots that long would have only a few of them.
It would certainly limit you, it depends on the campground. Many COE CG take units up to 75 ft. But you'll rarely find national park CG sites in that length. Probably likewise with many National Forest sites. Commercial CG will be more likely to have long enough sites.
