Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Where do they get the foot length from?

I'm plotting out our next purchase and realized that I don't know where they get the footage figures for TTs.  If they say it is 20 foot, does that mean from outside tip to bumper? Or tongue to bumper? Or is that inside footage? confuse

TT length is usually measured from the front of the tounge to the rear bumper

Well drats! Is there a place to find out what the length and width is Inside a TT?

I'm looking at a lot of them that are a fair distance from me so no way to run in an measure them all. It would be helpful to know what length to aim but I need inside measurements for that. :)


Kind regards

For the most part all tongue's are the same length so you can check one out and have a general Idea on length. As for interior width once again for the most part TT'S are around 8 feet wide .One thing you will find out is that you can take 2 trailer's the exact same size and depending on the particular floor plan you will have more room in 1 versus the other. Happy hunting,we looked at many 5ver's before we decided on the one we bought.

I suggest you go to the RV shows and look at these rigs or dealers. You can look at the floor plans on the internet but seeing one in person is the way to really get what you want.
