For Class 8 truck pulling a 53' trailer, you can expect the length to typically be between 60 and 80 feet, depending on the wheelbase and hood extension of the power unit. With a Volvo VNL730 (with a 233 inch wheelbase) and 48' flatbed with the fifth wheel slid all the way to the rear, I measure out around 67 feet. With a Kenworth W900L (with a 270 inch wheelbase) and a 53' stepdeck trailer and the fifth wheel centred, I measured about 78 feet.
