It has nothing to do as to whether it's a 5th wheel or gooseneck. Both, 5th wheel kingpin, and gooseneck ball have to be mounted from zero to 3"+ in front of the rear axle centerline. All horse/stock trailers are goosenecks by the way. When you convert a 5th wheel tlr to a gooseneck, the gooseneck coupling extends vertically directly below the kingpin so all the cab to trailer front distances stay exactly the same. If the trailer is a V-nose gooseneck like mine in this link below it can't hit the cab even in a short bed Tundra unless I went somewhat over 90 degrees to the truck, however I'm sure I'd have to watch my tight turns with my gooseneck converted travel trailer due to it's wide front end.

Not that I would need to pull one anytime, but there isn't a problem pulling a goose neck trailer with a CrewMax, right?

You'd have to back under that specific trailer at various angles until the hitch coupling is over or a bit forward of your rear axle and make a judgement call. It would definitely have to be a V-nose I bet.
