I drive a Nissan Titan King Cab (aka "extended cab") & pull a 24' boat sitting on a tandem axle trailer. The whole rig is about 48' long, tip-to-tip, but I don't know the wheelbase of the truck+trailer.
Wonder if you all might be able to tell me a reasonable minimum driveway turn radius, without me having to hook it up & go measure it myself?
Although I guess that'd just be a good reason to go boating this weekend :thumbsup:
In any case, a new driveway I'm laying out, that must go between certain trees, & would be good to stay within certain other trees, puts the maximum inside radius of the planned driveway right at 40' (52' would be the outer edge radius). Of course that equals an 80' inside diameter for a U-turn. & therefore, about a 96' center diameter for a U-turn.
By the way, this would be about a 90-degree driveway turn, not a full 180 U-turn.
What do ya'll think?
Edit: The 96' mentioned above should've been 92'. Bad math by me!
