I'm moving from a 31' TT to a 34'er. For those that made a similar size jump did you notice a big difference dealing with traffic, turning or parking? Or was the change no big deal?

We went from 28 to 34 ft and didn't see much difference. The camp site needs to be 6 ft longer, that about it.

We did same, well 33'7". It is a bit heavier but tows well for the short distance we travel. I do agree on the campsite size, it will limit the one's you can fit on. We find sometimes it's easier to back in as it takes a lot of area for that 34' to turn. If you camp at pull thru sites it would be ok.

I went from 28 ft to 34 ft. Could not get into most of the camp sites we used too. Had to be careful getting out of Service Stations. The 34 gave us so much more room with the Super Slide. I sold it last year and downsized to 26ft. Today I looked at a 35 ft. Cannot stand the 26 ft, no room !!! I loved the 34 ft. I should have kept it but after 10 years I thought it was time to sell.

For the short time it takes to tow where ever you're going to compared to the amount of time you spend in the trailer when you get there it's worth every bit of the inconvenience to tow a trailer that's a few feet longer in order to have the extra room. The longer I stay in my trailer the smaller it gets! If it were possible to get a double wide house trailer into a camping ground I'd be towing one of those.

we went from a 19HTT to a 34TT, I think it swings around better. The only difference I see so far is it takes a lot longer to wash and wax it...

I went from a seasonal to towing a 34 foot trailer (towed a pop up 11 years earlier) and once I made it around my first right turn and almost losing the awning with a stop sign, I have had no problems. To date I have gotten nice sites do to the size site needed.

Thanks, it good to hear the extra size won't be much of an issue.

I picked it up today. The extra length was not a problem getting around town or in traffic.
