Actually, I'd looked at the RVIA list as well, but it was even more confusing!  For example, the 1st line, for Alabama in the 5th Wheel column says "40' Vehicle", with a comment of "'Fifth wheel trailer' is not separately defined under maximum length provisions. 'Trailer' is not separately defined from 'Vehicle'.'.  What does that mean?  The maximum combined length is 40'?  The trailer length can only be 40'?  The additional length of the 5er over the length of the tow vehicle can only be 40'?

Why have laws that aren't enforced?  I can see very old laws, like the mentioned skirt length law, but vehicle laws are much more modern, and are updated at least once in a while.

I've been looking at long DRV 5th wheels, but I just got concern about the maximum length allowed in different states.  This site: https://drivinglaws.aaa.com/tag/trailer-dimensions/ has a nice list of limitations, but many of them seem ridiculous.  For example, the longest trailer allowed in Arizona seems to be 28.5'.  How can this be?  What am I missing?  Or is AAA just totally wrong about this?
