Caravan trips, multi-rig pickups, RV-club rallies, bachelor / bachelorette trips. Pickup-hub logistics for 2-3 rigs at once + group-rate insurance riders.
Why an RV for groups (5-10 people)
Group RV pages on PickRV plan the multi-rig caravan trip honestly — 2-3 Class A's + a tow car for the bachelor/bachelorette weekend, 4-5 rigs for the RV-club rally, group-rate insurance rider math, single-pickup-hub logistics where it works, and the campground 'group site' bookings that hold sites adjacent. Driver convoy rules + radio channels + caravan spacing per state DMV are covered.
Editor-curated trip windows run 3–10 days; book ~16 weeks ahead for the best per-night pricing and pickup-hub availability.

Common questions
Yes — PickRV's group booking flow allows 2-5 rigs at once with shared dates/locations. Bulk discount: 10% off the second rig, 15% off third + onwards from the same vendor. Save by mixing rig types: one Class A as kitchen-rig, smaller Class C's as sleeper-rigs.
(1) State park 'group camp' areas (search 'group camping' on ReserveAmerica) — Yellowstone has 4 group sites, Glacier 2, Yosemite 4. (2) KOA 'group rig sites' (multiple 50A pads side-by-side). (3) Forest Service group sites (search recreation.gov 'group camping'). (4) BLM dispersed area clusters (free, first-come). Book 6+ months ahead for summer.
8 people / 2 rigs is the sweet spot. 6 people / 1 large Class A (2x queens + cab-over + dinette = 6 sleep) works if everyone gets along. 12+ people / 3+ rigs creates real coordination overhead and is best for 1-2 night max trips.
Yes — cell coverage in caravan-favorite zones (Yellowstone, Glacier, Forest Service roads) is unreliable. FRS/GMRS walkie-talkies ($80/pair, 22 channels) are the standard. Use Channel 11 (the unofficial RVer channel) or Channel 1 + agreed-PL-tone for privacy.
Google Sheet with everyone's restrictions (gluten-free, vegan, allergies) shared 30 days pre-trip. Assign meals by night with an 'inclusive substitute' baked in. KOA + Walmart in most areas stocks specialty diets; verify ahead for remote stops.
