I kinda have to keep it able to tow a 5er, I already own one of them. The sleeper for the truck is for the family to ride comfy, or me and possibly two other smelly roofers to hose off and sleep. I could see a cab over killing mileage, but I was trying to keep the RV section short. Majority of the trucks I've seen out here are 24ft flatbeds. I think I'd have to lose 2-4 feet from the tail to allow the trailer to clear. I'd like to keep something around a 10ft bed when not towing. Even thought about hinging part of the rear overhang, so it would be like a bumper/stone guard while towing, and a bed extension when working. Make sense kinda? I know budgets get way out of control, but that's why I want opinions from people that have or are doing this kind of thing. Been looking at a bunch of trailers and campers on CL.
