Here's the overall length for trucks (triple tandem) in the State of Oregon:

818.210 Limits on authority to issue variance permit. Except as provided under ORS 818.220, a road authority shall not issue a variance permit under ORS 818.200 for any vehicle or load that can readily or reasonably be dismantled or disassembled. The limit under this section does not apply to the following:

(1) Combinations of vehicles consisting of not more than a motor truck with a registration weight of more than 8,000 pounds and two self-supporting trailers or a truck tractor and semitrailer drawing two self-supporting trailers or semitrailers mounted on dollies equipped with fifth wheels having an overall length not in excess of 105 feet. The self-supporting trailers or semitrailers must be reasonably uniform in length.

We drove through Oregon once dodging those triple trailer trucks!!!! That was an adventure, try passing one of them on a two lane road. EEEEEK

And, when they drive like maniacs in the rain with deer on both sides of the road passing each other you just want to run for the nearest exit!!!
