What is the total extended length?

Fully extended is 15' or just slightly over so with your arms extended is where they give you the 17' reach capability, thus the model 17'

5 feet, fully extended. I just used it while traveling for a week, it worked flawlessly.

Maybe 6 to 8 inches. I didn't need to extend my wires I just needed to get the correct connectors.

I don't have unit handy now, but having seen it installed I believe it is at least an 18" extension...

The full length is 8'. The actual usable length is less due to how the straps attach.

Just measured for ya! I measured 4 ft but it bungies, so at full extension I'd say 5 ft.

I did not measure, but I think about 25 feet or more. I had plenty of length.

From the wall to the back of the mounting plate, fully extended measure 15 inches

The 2" reference is for the size of receiver, has nothing to do with the length of the extension, overall it is about 13" and the other answers are correct about 7-8" extension when installed. Be aware that extensions are great for bike racks allowing for clearance past rear mounted spare tires but when trailering this extension's use diminishes the tow vehicles listed tongue weight and trailering capacities.

The extended full length is approximately 5 ft and its pretty much long enough.

Pretty long plus there is an extension as well. I would say probably 4-5 ft

It's about 6 feet long... I also bought the extender which works great too.

I can't get to it right now but it is the correct length for your receiver to replace factory. Not extended. Is a quality product.

I don't know the exact measurement -but I use an extension cored because it is very short.

29.75" fully extended, 33" fully contracted. However, the end that locks always stands at 35".

It means that it is constructed in 3 pieces and it extends 10". Fully extended measures 20". Hope this answer helps.

I've never had to fully extend it. I will be using it again on Thursday. If that isn't to late to provide you an answer, I will do so then.
