Need a larger trailer!

I thought I'd have enough room in the 30' trailer but am out of room! Looking at this 36' Elite Liftgate Stacker.
The wife and I travel to the major motorcycle events across the country and sell Sick Boy motorcycle apparel. Our current 30' trailer houses our inventory, the tent and tent hardware that we set up on the trailer while vending, a golf cart, at least one motorcycle and a 1930 Model A Ford Rat Rod that we display. (The Ford is our only means of transportation while at the shows, other than the motorcycle) We need to throw another car on the trailer so we can use it to get around. Looking at getting a Toyota Scion IQ because its a 4 seater (2 dogs will go in the back seat) and it's a short car!

The pic of the wrapped trailer is the one we have now. The second trailer is the one we are considering if we can get it at the right price!

Educate me please. Wouldn't this put you over legal length in some states?
I'm assuming your coach is 45'.

Thread was started under the "Just Conversation" section so I was conversing.

TinmanTC-Yes you are correct.

Do you have the same wrap on the motorhome?
Don't worry about being over length, the hdt crowd usually is. How much tongue weight does a rig like that have loaded?

almost all diesel pushers that have a trailer behind them are over length in Florida, max length is 65' .. heck just my rig is 7' over length at 52' befor I put the trailer on it, just the chance you take here in Florida.

The motorhome does not have a matching wrap. Towing capacity is 40,000 pounds. Not sure of the tongue weight capacity...have to check.
