Exclamation Re: Michigan RV's + Trailer Length Warning

That length might be good in Mich. but some nearby states are only allowing a total length of in the MID 50's to 60 feet COMBINED OVERALL LENGTH of motorhome tow vehicle & trailer--so if you have a 24 ft box trailer with a 4 ft drawbar total length of 28 feet and the regs say 59 feet overall, your tow vehicle/motorhome can only be 31 feet long---you need a SHORTER tow vehicle/motorhome OR a shorter trailer-- a 40-45 ft motorhome pulling a 32 ft stacker trailer is OBVIOUSLY over length by a bunch--I do not comprehend how racers cannot understand the regs. as written---C'mon fellas this is no surprise the rules for each state are published for everyone to see no surprises here---What it comes down to is if you want to use a 40 foot long tow vehicle and a 30-50 fot long trailer or something that weighs an awful lot , your gonna hafta get the proper drivers license(maybe a CDL) and registration/tags/plates for that vehicle to be legal---anything else your just kidding yourself--get legal or suffer the consequences it's that simple--Comp
