Is it the same restrictions for length with a Motorhome and trailer as it is for a pickup and trailer, (20M)

 

As far as I know it's 65 feet in Texas.

 

yeah same here, give or take, 67 feet or 20 m. But I am wondering how these gusy with tht toterhomes and 40+ foot trailers make it, by my calculations they are over 70feet

 

toter home may have air brakes and be classed as a semi, not sure if that changes how long they can be, but it might.

 

I think they just have bigger fish to fry and unles your being a complete butthead you will be left alone. The only concern may be if you were involved in an accident then the insurance company may bring it up in court as being over the legal length limit.

 

I hear that they can be a bit particular going accross the border into the states

 

BC will probably be sticky too.

 

Not allowed 2 trailers in B.C, so the length doesn't come into play a lot of times. Got to think to be around 67 ft you could have a 40ft motorhome 30ft trailer, which will look pretty dang long. I have heard of cops making guys over by less then a feet remove stuff to make it though. Very rare i'm sure if your that close, but you never know if you run into the wrong person.

 

dont forget the hitch, so that 30 foot trailer is really 32 feet... which then puts you at 72 or 74 feet,, a fair bit over the 20 m we are allowed.... I just dont know what to do

 

There is a difference between provinces and states, some 60feet some 85 feet. Here's a link to a site that gives the info.

yeah I was looking on that site, where my question is... why can the guys with the toter homes go over the 65 foot limit and still be legal,, and can I get away with that with a motorhome (legally) or am I pretty much hooped and have to go to the truck style MH?
