Maximum Towing Length?

does anyone here know the maximum towing length for a non commercial driver

i have heard everything from 62 to 72 feet tow rig and rv combined

i am looking at new 5ers this week, we have ours sold if we want to upgrade to a nicer unit

i have the 3500 my 5er and approx. 16 feet of jeep to add into the equation

I pull this about twice a month in the summer and have not been bothered (knock on wood).
It's 75' 9" nose to rear.

TX max length for doubles is 65 ft. I have yet to be hassled about my 72 ft combo. To find out about your state call DMV.
