fifth wheel length, etc

I know that the question of length has been brought up many, many times and it seems that there is no true answer but...I am looking more for a comparison, maybe.

I currently have a 35' TT and I know how long my combo is (2004 RAM 3500 Quad cab) If I look at a similar size fifth wheel how much does that (if any) change my overall length of combo?

We will be slightly downsizing, for a number of reasons, and will probably go with a fifth wheel. Just curious how they measure out after hookup to the TV.

Thoughts?

If you compare a 35' TT to a 35' fifth wheel just depends a little on truck bed length but about 5 feet hangs (+/-) is over the truck bed making the fifth wheel overall shorter behind the truck. ............ Inside you will gain a little space with the 5th wheel as you don't loose space with a tongue.
