We aim to improve the Specification Database over the coming Months, what we need is your help and feedback.
1. What additional fields do you want to be added
2. What is a way of improving it in your opinion?
3. Should we have more mandatory fields so we get a more complete database
Could we please refrain from going off topic so it easier to collate the information.
Thank you in advance for your contribution
Steve

I tried filling in your RV /5th wheel data base, but it would not let me as my 5th wheel does not have an engine or seatbelts

Further options in your current menus, applicable to RV's perhaps, based upon our campervan:
Manufacturer: Monaco
Chassis: Roadmaster
Fridge capacity: 400 litres
Engine size: 8.8 litres
How about splitting tank capacities into, again with our figures as examples:
Fresh Water: 378 litres
Grey Water: 234 litres
Black water: 151 litres
How about the following ideas for categories. You may decide it is too much to deal with of course.
Fuel tank capacity: 378 litres
Fixed LPG tank capacity: 118 litres
Interior height: 2.13 m
Wheelbase length: 6.19 m
No. of slide-outs: current maximum number is I believe 5
Total no of seats: to include belted seats above (or in addition to belted seats above)
How about splitting the no of beds into fixed and not fixed?
All the above just ideas for you to think about, no wish to interfere as a minority party with an interest in RV's!

I thought I might cross refer American RVs on the SMMT list

with your "manufacturer list" to see how they compared. A lot are already on your list.
I hope you might attract more members / subscribers if prospective members could see some relevance for them to get involved, if and when they see their RV is listed.
Some might be put off if they feel they are not on your list. I recall looking at the list quite early on to get a feel of the site.
Just an idea.
So here are the "missing" makes. No doubt not complete and others can chip in as always.
In my earliest research pre buying an RV I recall all but two of the above names.
Best wishes,
Duadua

Will that do for now?
I reckon a lot more fields should also be mandatory, price, tank sizes, weights, payload etc. Also why does the text on the details screen mention the number of gas lockers? Surely should say Gas locker capacity.
Thanks Ken

With the amount of interest in RVs on MHF and the wide difference in vehicle specs between RVs and European vehicles I can't help thinking that we would benefit from a seperate database for RVs and 5th wheelers.
What do the RV community think? Would they be prepared to populate the database if it existed?
Doubt if Nuke would thank me for that suggestion though an account of the work involved.
Hi Ken
May be a good idea, even though I have just altered the fields. It would be better to do all alterations at the same time but an early decision from Dave would help.
I have sent you a pm with Spec DB so far and Dave I think
