It all depends whether this is only for coachs or for HGV's as well,
The guy I spoke to made said this was for coaches only, freight regulations were as previously quoted. He didn't know about RVs

According to the ARVE mag. Travel World are importing 41' monaco's without any problems.
If their usual measurements are anything to go by, they will be nearer 42 than 41

olley,
Well Monaco are hardly alone. I must confess the psychology/ marketing of RV lengths leaves me completely flummoxed:
1) The RVs are in truth longer than the serial numbers suggest.
2) So logically they are trying to persuade punters they are smaller than they really are.
3) But RVs in the States form a strongly competitive market, where perceived bang-for-your-buck is absolutely key.
4) Unlike over here, there is a much smaller operational penalty of having a big coach.
5) So shouldn't it be the other way around?
Dave
