Where To Lay Your Head: Pop Up Campers
In 1972 the Fitzgeralds (including my grandparents) drove a station wagon from Ohio to Alaska towing a popup camper.
I don't know if they've changed a whole lot in those 40 years or not.
The two end pieces are beds and the kitchen table also makes into a bed.
These are images I found online. They have kitchens but usually not a bathroom other than maybe a chemical toilet.
After the trip to Alaska the camper was used for many fun sleepovers and slumber parties.
The advantages of a pop up camper are: I think they are fairly inexpensive, easy to tow and can probably be towed w/a car so you don't need to buy a big truck or SUV. More comfortable than a tent and more cooking options since you don't have to bring along a grill or propane stove. They are light to tow so you won't use as much gas as with other RVs.
The disadvantages: set up, not a lot of room inside. Setting up in the rain would be a big drag.
This one looks sort of fancy.
