I have searched and found...

    Windshields in travel trailers/fifth wheels, worth it?

    I notice windshields are becoming more and more common. My question is; Those of you with windshields, are you glad your unit has one? Do they leak? Are bugs a problem? Personally I think they look pretty cool but the above possibilities concern me.

    Length travel trailer vs 5er

    If I am looking at a 29' travel trailer behind my 20' truck, my total length should be 49' plus the length of the equalizer head, so let's say 50'. Now if I have a 34' 5er, the total length is what? I am 1,000 miles away from my truck so I can't measure the rear overhang. It's a 2015 Chevy...
