Solitude 310Gk length
So, the wife and I are looking at a solitude 310 for our future rig. My current RV/boat pad is 36’. In the literature I find I see a length that is a pin length. Does anyone know what the overall length of a solitude is? Thanks

From my notes, our 2018 310GK measures 36' 4-3/4" from the most forward part of the nose to the rear bumper. The ladder sticks out a little (6"?) beyond the rear bumper. You are correct the factory (brochure) length is measured from the center of the king pin to the rear bumper.

What Chris ^^^ said above. I round mine out to 37-ft. overall from front of the nose to the rear of the ladder. Also, if you need it, the distance between the front landing gear & the rear axle (midline) is approx. 16-ft. This would be the "ground contact" dimensions that will land-on/touch your pad. The distance from the midline of the rear axle to the rear bumper is around 12-ft.4-in. And finally, the distance between the front landing gear and the rear landing gear is just under 20-ft.
Hope this helps! -Diego

Hello Diego. Can you confirm the distance from the center of the rear axle to the rear bumper is around 12-ft.4-in? I have 11' 6" in my notes, but I could easily be wrong. My trailer currently in storage and not convenient to check. I match your other dimensions.
Thank you
