Please always try to take care about to travel lightweigt, to reduce repairs, fuel usage, material stress and expensive penaltys from the cops on your yourney. What is really important for extended jorneys?
1.) To sleep comfortable (dont matters where - but it has to be equal or better than at home)
Doesnt matters if you are a weekender or on a extended journey, you will use it aprox. 7h a day and if your back hurt, you dont will be able to enjoy it further.
2.) A comfortable and safe rig
A modern vehicle with a good noise cancellation and security features like ESP and Airbags will give you a comfortable ride. A rig who is able to carry everything your ego told you to carry, and still is capable and quiet after modding. Much more important than any gear if you plan to travel extended.
3.) comfortable camp environment (seats / table)
If the outdoor/indoor seats are shitty also the trip isnt enjoyable (starts to get more important as longer you travel, starts after 8days ongoing overlanding). Too the table has to give you a good place for food prepartion and lunch/dinner
4.) Kitchen / Dish washing
You will prepare food daily and you habe to wash the dishes afterwards - this equipement has to be good and useful.
5.) Storage
You need a good storage structure so that you dont search everything each time.
6.) Water Sourcing
You need something to store it, easy accesable, easy to refill. Washing your hands, dishsed, wash vegetables, your shoes. Decice early in planning stage, how you will transport, use it, refil it.
7.) a (12v compressor) fridge
A fridge will give you many more food options, not just cold beer. From butter, sausage, cheese, salmon, bacon, cheese, ham and milk to nice steaks. Take one with a thermal shell to reduce energy usage.
8.) Self-Sufficiency
Everything wo let you stay severall days remotely, bring you time for enyoing the surrounding. So what you need for be able to stay 5 nighs at a beautiful remote spot?
So if you did choose an rv, who did bring bed, seats, table and a kitchen - you probably dont need it separately. Probably it will limit the roads you would like to cross, so you had to get a good balance of required comfort and your travel plans.
There are many opions around to find the perfect fit as travel rig. Small, medium big size vehicles, trailers, roof top tents - try a lot before you choose!
