Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to the most common questions about cientrailcamper.it.

Where do I find my motorhome's measurements?

In the vehicle registration document and on the manufacturer's spec sheet. Watch out for the two most common mistakes: the height is almost always stated without the air conditioner, hatches or roof rack, and the width without the mirrors. Measure in person when you can.

The verdict says it fits: can I trust it?

It is a geometric check of dimensions, overhangs, openings and turning path. It does not account for slopes, bumps, soft ground, suspension or the driver's skill. A favorable result is not permission to try without someone on the ground.

What does "impossible maneuver" mean?

It means the turn cannot be done in a single continuous maneuver with the space given. With back-and-forth moves you might still manage: try it at walking pace, with someone on the ground.

What is the "turning circle"?

It is the diameter of the smallest circle the motorhome can travel with the steering fully turned. You find it on the manufacturer's spec sheet and it is used to calculate how much space the turn requires.

How do I measure the space at home?

You need the width of the opening at the ground between the two sides, the clear height under eaves and balconies, and the maneuvering space in front (the width of the road or yard). The guide has the step-by-step detail.

Is my data saved or sent?

No. The measurements you enter stay in your browser and are never transmitted. No name, email or account is collected. The setups you save also stay only on your device.

Can I add my motorhome to the archive?

Yes. Fill in the vehicle fields and use "Submit this vehicle": the entry is reviewed before being published. Use measurements taken on the vehicle or read from the documents, not estimates. You can also browse the archive.

Does it work without internet?

Yes. You can install the site as an app from your phone's screen ("Add to Home Screen") and use it offline too, handy in a yard or on the road with no signal.
