Did Jayco restrict the turning radius on 2019 Greyhawk 30x, Ford F450?

The Ford manual says the turning radius is about 25 feet.
When doing a U turn recently it looked more like about 40 foot radius.
Perhaps limited to protect toad from excessive angle?

Perhaps because after Ford manufactured the chassis, that another company stretched it further prior to Jayco building the RV on it. I don't remember the name of the company that does the stretch however, I suspect that in doing so the turning radius increased. ~CA

Mor-Ryde was the primary company doing them.

We got trapped by an accident on a high mountain road a few years back. Rock wall to the right, cliff drop to the left. Emergency services helped us turn around, but it took a loooooooooooong time. And it was with a sphincter every moment.



I wanted to strangle the person who lengthened my turning radius after that.
