Default Guidance please

I've been tasked to make reservations for Yellowstone NP next year.
I'm looking for guidance from folks who have camped at Yellowstone; that had a full sized truck with either a quad cab or extended cab and either the 2619 or 2720 TM.
What campground did you stay at? Were you able to stay at a site/camp ground that allowed for 35 FT and under? Or did you stay at the 40 FT and longer sites.
The company that manages the campground has pretty narrow guide lines on where I can camp due to the length of my setup. Truck with 2619 TM attached is approx. 45 feet long, so it narrows down my choices.

Any help or knowledge would be greatly appreciated.

I cannot speak for other campgrounds, but Fishing Bridge will accommodate almost anything. The reason is that each site is two vehicles wide - you park your tow vehicle next to your camper. I've seen some huge Montana fifth wheels in Fishing Bridge, with a big pickup tow vehicle beside them.

The good things about Fishing Bridge are that it has full hookups, and it is near the center of the park, which makes access to any other part of the park easier.

The bad thing about Fishing Bridge is that the sites are small and crowded, so you will be looking into your neighbors' windows. That never bothered us, because we were never in the site except late at night while we slept. After all, Yellowstone is not a place where you go to bring out the comfy chairs and play cards while you sip a beer and people-watch.

Just my thoughts.

Bill, thank you for the information. I made my reservations today for the Madison campground and it seems I'll not have any problems.

Madison CG won't be a problem, we stayed at Norris Basin and except for parking the truck across the front of the site the camper was no problem. At the time we had a pup that was 25' when open. Our 2720SL we had would have fit the same site which was on the small side. The larger ones were mostly taken up with very small tents.
