Thank you so much!

Very informative. Is it possible to camp in Europe with an American 45ft motorhome and a stacker trailer with a sum length of approximately 70ft?

I was recently told that it is not possible to import an American diesel coach into Europe because of EU Emissions requirements. I haven't verified that yet, but my coach has DEF, but also has a diesel generator and a diesel heating system (Oasis) that do not have DEF on their exhaust systems... If you have learned something new since you posted this, please let me know. Another point... a 45ft coach with slide outs will likely not fit in many places at all in Europe.

It's very hard, but should be possible, wether it's worth the effort and costs I'm not sure!

You are not fair in NOT explaining where one is going with this elephant RV of 8 meters. I have lived in Canada for 50 years and often go to Italy where I was born to visit my relatives who live in various of the many small towns many of which are also from the medieval times. I would have an very hard time, if not impossible, to handle such a large vehicle. I would have to leave it far from the house I want to get to. I have never seen large RVs being driven inside medieval sections of cities in northern Italy. They are left in specially provided parking areas outside these areas which are not necessarily small and then the occupants have to walk, use bicycles or public transportation. Large RVs are for tourists who do not require the vehicle to take them from all places to all places like a car and have the comfort of spending a lot of time inside the vehicle as they would at home. Typically they would not engage with the local people. We use the camper to sleep, eat the simple meals and plan. The rest of the time we go to other peoples homes or go on trips in the alps of Italy, Austria, Switzerland, and France often using very narrow roads. Maneuvering a wide 8 meter RVs would be virtually impossible.

Hello Dante, When you are travelling the way you are doing, sounds like you spend a lot of nights in houses, maybe even hotels, I understand and especially when you want to go into the cities you might enjoy a campervan that is smaller, how ever, personally I like to explore, I seldom stay somewhere more then 2 nights and the small towns you are talking about are even impossible to cross with a regular RV and sometimes annoying enough with a car haha! So yes I often park just outside of the little village, stay there for the night while walking in to the town. In my experience I have more contact with locals on the country side and there is more then enough space, my parents drive a 8.5 meter and they only go off the motorway, spend weeks with friends and family around Europe, so you are right, there are places where you'd benefit from a smaller campervan, just like there are a lot of places you'd really benefit with a 4x4. But the main of Europe is very accessible with sizes up to that 8 meter. Considering the last 10 years and 100 customers touring Europe in these RVs 😁😁😁😁😁
