Depends where you want to camp.
Bingo! This sums it up perfectly. When I read posts about longer trailers it really kills me when people chime in with statements like "I always find places where I want to camp." Well, if this means you always camp at private places like KOAs then you are correct. I can tell you that it is a FACT that when you go up to a 32 you will be limited at national parks and campgrounds. If you research and reserve ahead you might be fine but it is harder to find places for the larger trailers. If you like to just go and find places when you get there you will have some real problems.
As far as towing, others have summed it up nicely. This shouldn't be a big issue as long as you have a TV up to the task. The actual driving and backing won't be a problem.
By all means, get what you want. But just remember that it will limit you in some regards. It will also provide many benefits in others.
x2. I just finished a 1700 mile trip over the 4th. I had to cancel 3 state park reservations because I couldn't fit my 22' rig into the reserved spots due to parked cars and long trailers intruding into the drive in front of the 'large' reserved sites. I couldn't turn sharp enough without running into someones truck or trailer. Got the refunds, and went to state forest campgrounds which were only half full; but only for short rigs. I will never make a reservation at a state park again.
