It's a M2-106 chassis, spec'd at 309" wheelbase
On the backing up option, are we talking inches or a few feet of wiggle room in reverse? Another thing I should probably test out I suppose.
You'll be better off than we are with the 309" wheelbase. The photos online make it look like the long wheelbase version. That's still almost 26' just between axles though!
On backing with a toad, you'll get the people who say don't, never/ever. It's the safer mantra to abide by for sure.
When backing, it's easy to become flustered. Angry drivers, traffic, or a frustrating situation (misjudged a turn and now you're 'stuck'). Things to keep in mind if you do: Watch the tow bar, you don't want it to make contact with the RV, obviously. You don't want to back in an opposite direction that the toad or its wheels are already turned. Basically, you can back just a few feet or more to "undo" a little of your turn, same path you came in. But you don't want to try to maneuver or wiggle around a whole bunch.
