Thanks, and yeah also the voltage difference!

And different propane tank connectors.

Flagged as "Blatantly off-topic" - Is your sprinter traveling? I'm sorry, but this is offtopic.

@TopQuestions - How is traveling by RV "blatantly off-topic"? Its definitely is not an expat question as the close votes indicate. The closure police are way off base this time.

Do you want to take it to the US and back, because you're planing a long road trip? Or do you want to permanently move to the US and take your car with you? The latter would be more appropriate on Expatriates. But if you want to spend loads of money to take your van to the US and back home (where's the difference to your Harley, but size?), this is perfectly on-topic I believe.

Sorry I should have just added that detail, I'm looking to go travel the states for 2 year's and looking to bring the sprinter back at the end of the travel.

Then it would be a flag because of "price-shopping for specific goods or services" - he's asking for a price for a service - this is not a traveling-related question anyways - in my opinion.

Please read the post, I'm only asking for any help on the price/time of this shipping but that is a sub-question to my question about what complications people came across when shipping a campervan from the UK to the USA for the purpose of travelling, please read the question thoroughly before commenting.

I didn't want to be a dick here, but this is not travel related. This is a question about how to ship your car from here to there and how much it'll cost. Please read the travel.stackexchange.com/tour faq/tour before asking a question. "With your help, we're working together to build a library of detailed answers to every question about traveling."

@tom travelling by RV isn't off-topic, but shipping an RV is.

@aakashm - So you're saying I can't ask about sending my bike to Japan to tour, but I can ask about bike touring in Japan? That differentiation is ridiculous and stupid. Sometimes I wonder about the 'rules' of this community.

I voted to reopen this, because as TQ mentioned "With your help, we're working together to build a library of detailed answers to every question about traveling". Questions about shipping an RV to travel with is no different than questions about renting an RV to travel in (which exist in SE Travel). Lots of Europeans ship RVs and camper vans to North America, travel for a few months, go home, then return the following summer to travel more. It is 100% travel and 0% expat. I have to question if these close votes are really anti-RV sentiment.

@Tom "I have to question if these close votes are really anti-RV sentiment." Oh, please. Please bear in mind our be nice policy. In your last two comments, you've called us "ridiculous and stupid" and accused us of being in some sort of anti-RV conspiracy.

@DavidRicherby - I accused no one of being stupid, I called the rules stupid. I didn't accuse you (derived from "us") of anti-rv sentiment, but simply wondered if it fit into the decisions made. I was unaware that members of this community were not allowed to question its set up or the decisions to close a question. But if my contributions, thoughts or comments are not welcome so be it. I have plenty of other things to spend my time instead of trying to help members here travel better.

@Tom If you call the rules "ridiculous and stupid" you are, by immediate implication, calling anybody who supports or is involved with those rules "ridiculous and stupid." You're welcome to question and to disagree; you're not welcome to be offensive and peddle conspiracies. It's perfectly possible to do one without doing the other.

@DavidRicherby - One final point before I bid adieu, if you look at SE communities overall (at least the few I keep half an eye on). the new question closure rate is around 5%, here at SE Travel it is 25%. That is my book is a BIG indicator that the rules are out of control.

@Tom A lot of those are duplicates (e.g., transit visas, Schengen visas).

@DavidRicherby - I was referring to those closed not duplicates. And calling rules stupid does not imply that people who follow them are stupid, it means the people who created them did not think it through completely.
