Going down the road they feel the same (as long as your TV is sufficient). The biggest difference when dealing with a longer unit is the swing of the back end. You just have to remember you now have XX more feet behind the trailer axles which will create a wider swing out when turning. I've gone from a 30' to a 35' to a 40'. To be honest, the jump from 30' to 35' wasn't much of a difference. The jump from 35' to 40' was a big change, partially because I also went to an 8' bed truck, but I was really surprised how wide that back bumper comes around. Of course, after I saw what it does, now I know and just plan for it. She'll figure it out real quick.
