We are a 35ft with our current trailer and we just make it into a lot of the backins where some one has parked directly across the street.
What do yall think?

The length of these new full size Eagle TT's (my 330RSTS is 39' 3") does not bode well for a lot of smaller campgrounds or state/county/local campgrounds due to their length. But we wanted a more seasonal than weekend unit as well as "room to move" and we just felt that it fit our wants and needs perfectly and if that meant we had to give up certain places to park on the way to wherever we are staying for a while, so be it.
I have a Crew Cab std. Bed 2500HD and with the trailer attached, it is a challenge in getting it in some back in sites that are advertised to handle a 40' trailer. And don't get me started on getting gas! But I have to admit that these challenges have made me MUCH BETTER at backing that sucker up!!! There was one time we had to get a few campers across the road from one spot to move their vehicles so we would have enough room to swing/back that beast in. We have also passed on a few sites that we were told would be fine, but in reality were just too tight of a fit.
So when we made the trek to Florida from Michigan, I specifically looked for campgrounds with "big rig" friendly sites, and if possible, always got a pull thru so I wouldn't have to unhitch on our overnight stops. The extra few bucks for those sites was worth it to me in not having to back up or unhitch for overnight stops.
