Gear & add-ons
Rent the rig with the gear already on it
A kayak rack rated for two tandems, 300Ah of lithium, a composting toilet for longer boondocking — the setup is the reason you pick one rig over another.
Each guide covers the weight math, the fit, and how to find the small set of PickRV hosts who pre-install it. No fluff, no fake inventory counts.
