A 38-foot rig, routed around every low bridge

Dale & Rita — full-timers in a 38-ft Class A

Dale and Rita sold the house and live in a 38-foot Class A. A wrong turn under a 12-foot overpass isn’t an inconvenience — it’s the whole trip. They plan every leg in tripster before they touch the wheel.

What they told tripster

  • 13′ 2″ height, 40,000 lb, 38 ft long
  • Carrying propane — avoid hazmat-restricted tunnels
  • Max 250 mi / day
  • Full hook-up stops within 15 mi of the route

Step 1

The rig is a parameter, not an afterthought

They saved the coach once in their garage as a Class A — height, width, length, weight, axle load, and the propane flag. Every trip since routes around those numbers automatically, so a low clearance or a weight-limited bridge never makes it onto the line.

The coach saved as a Class A: real dimensions plus the propane flag.

Step 2

The route bends to the coach

tripster draws the drivable route for their actual dimensions and splits it into daily legs under their 250-mile cap — so they’re never staring at a pass they can’t take or a day that runs past dark.

The route and its daily legs, built around the rig’s limits.

Step 3

Overnights that actually fit a Class A

Along the way, tripster surfaces full-hook-up stops within their radius — and the community confidence signals tell them whether a spot is still open before they commit 40,000 pounds to the off-ramp.

Your trip has its own constraints. Plan around them.
