maximum length?

Although it will likely be this spring before I have my bus on the road, I am wondering on state laws concerning length. My bus/rv is 34ft, and I intend to tow my boat, which is 28ft total, For a total length of 62ft. From what I have found so far is every state is differant, and some are as short as 55ft? Does anyone tow anything with their bus/RV? and have had any trouble for over length? Or know better what the length laws really are?

Just do some google searching. That's how I found the basic laws in my state.

Thanks for the link. I saved it, and good info in it.

Has any one been stopped and measured? My combo would be legal in my home state, and in most state,s but Maryland it would not be. Go through fast and pray? Or is this just really not a problem?

I wouldn't worry about it too much. In my experience as long as all your tail lights are working properly and there isn't anything too sketchy about your rig police won't even give you a second glance.
