I have a rear slide and have no problem putting it out anywhere there is room to park. But I nearly always am towing either a Jeep or a trailer so the slide just goes out over the tow bar or trailer tongue. If you put a cargo carrier on the rear hitch when not towing then the slide goes out over the cargo carrier so doesn't add to the length.
If, on the other hand, you have a bike rack or some kayaks or something similarly tall, you'd be out of luck. It's not necessarily a deal breaker for everyone, but it is something to consider that I might not have thought of before.
