If you asked us to pick the "core" van of our lineup, the one that defines what we do best, it’s the Gear Hauler. The concept is simple but powerful: a massive garage for your toys, a full-featured kitchen for your meals, and a proper queen-sized bed that doesn't require you to play Tetris every night.
