Our rig is 57'(hooked), I measured to determine how far over 65' I would be IF I doubled towed. We have a 2015 DRW RAM 4 door 8' bed and a 39' DRV 38RSSA Mobile Suites.




I ended up being about 6' over length.

Curious to know how many just took 35ft 5th wheel and 21ft truck and added together, not thinking 4ft of the 5th wheel overlaps 4ft of the truck...theoretically speaking


I don't think many did based on spot checks.

I've been watching this for a while, and finally got motivated to measure. We did this many years ago with a previous (slightly longer) 5th wheel.

Truck: 2007 Dodge 4x4, Quad-Cab, 6.7 Cummins, 6 speed manual, Hankook DH 07's

RV: 2004 Teton Freedom

Utility trailer: For hunting and all associated gear

Truck/ RV Total: 58 ft.(connected lenght)

Truck/RV/Utility Total: 76 ft.

DW thought we'd be "too long" with boat(additional 25 ft) behind rv, so got a little class c for boating trips. Plus we couldn't leave state ๐Ÿ˜ž (too long), with boat or utility trailer!
