Thanks for the input. I am waiting for a call back from a dealer that has the model I am interested in and then will hopefully have the numbers I need. I will also visit a local Camping World that has a few coaches that I will check out with tape in hand. Also, I have not driven a coach with a tag axle so hoping to do that as well.

The 42' coach I am interested in is not local so unable to measure the difference from rear drive wheel hub center to tag hub center. My guess is that the distance is fairly standard depending on tire size. I guess the term "cut angle" refers to the path the rear tires follow relative to the steering angle of the front tires. I know I have clearance around trees with my 40' coach with a wheel base of 266". If the new coach has a similar wheel base from steer tires to drive tires, it would seem to me that it would make the same turns providing the front wheels are turned the same degree regardless of the tag wheels.

I currently have a 2011 Tiffin Phaeton 40' MH and thinking of moving to an 2017 Entegra Anthem 42' with tag axle. Does anyone have the wheel base measurements on the 42' from the steer wheels to the drive wheels? My coach has a wheel base of 266" and the only thing listed for the Entegra is the wheel base from the steer wheels to the tag axle at 296". I called Spartan chassis and they could not tell me the measurement other then to the tag axle. The reason this would be important to me is that I can maneuver the 40' around my property but not sure I will be able to with a longer coach unless the wheel base is similar or close to 266" from steer wheels to drive wheels. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
