A propulsion system includes a fan, a gear, a turbine configured to drive the gear to, in turn, drive the fan. The turbine has an exit point, and a diameter (Dt) is defined at the exit point. A nacelle surrounds a core engine housing. The fan is configured to deliver air into a bypass duct defined between the nacelle and the core engine housing. A core engine exhaust nozzle is provided downstream of the exit point. A downstream most point of the core engine exhaust nozzle is defined at a distance from the exit point. A ratio of the distance to the diameter is greater than or equal to about 0.90.
