Tailgating is so much more than a pre-game ritual. For many, it’s a glorious event unto itself. But if you really want to level up your tailgate, bring an RV. From outdoor kitchens to full-size fridges and stoves, RVs bring the party. Here are 10 of the most ultimate tailgating RVs you’ll find anywhere.
1. The Rent-A-Tailgate Option
Is it cheating to hire a whole tailgating solution? Not even close. This is a “work smarter not harder” option, requiring a big investment in the short-term, but delivering a turnkey solution to your tailgating needs. Just be sure to bring your checkbook, because ultimate don’t come cheap.
2. A Luxury High Camp Trailer With Outdoor Kitchen
Tailgating indoors is like watching football in a soccer jersey. It just ain’t right. So while the big Class As might impress your friends and neighbors, a big rig puts a lot of wasted indoor space in that parking spot. This luxury teardrop trailer from High Camp brings something different to the table: an outdoor kitchen that’s perfect for delivering the perfect tailgating experience. It’s got enough burner space to cook a Thanksgiving meal, and enough cool factor to reel in plenty of passersby. This trailer’s a huge standout option in a small package.
3. This RV That AI Thinks Is the Ultimate Tailgating RV
I asked ChatGPT to show me the most ultimate RV it could ever imagine. I think it knocked it out of the park, and now I absolutely must see someone renovate a double-decker bus as a future Tailgate Center of the Universe.
4. The Cyclone Ultimate Tailgate RV by Heartland
This is a tailgater’s dream, ready to turn any parking lot into a full-blown party zone. Stretching 44 feet, this party palace features dual decks, an interior that is a sports fan’s paradise, and a full bar with four massive 55-inch HD TVs, an 18-speaker sound system, and enough space to entertain the whole crew.
But the fun doesn’t stop there. The garage transforms into a second bar, and if that isn’t enough to keep the party going, there’s an indoor/outdoor hot tub for ultimate relaxation. So you can take a morning dip while waiting for kickoff. What could be more ultimate than that? This isn’t just an RV – it’s a rolling fun festival, making sure you’re the life of the party no matter where you park it.
5. The Coachmen Leprechaun
This Class C is designed with outdoor entertainment in mind. It’s equipped with a 32-inch flat-screen TV and a full stereo system, so you won’t miss a second of the action, even while parked in your favorite folding chair in your favorite stadium parking lot. The exterior kitchen is under a 21-foot power awning, so you can cook up game-day favorites with ease, keeping everyone fed and happy, without getting a pre-kickoff sunburn. And since it’s a Class C, its maneuverability means you don’t have to worry about sporting a commercial driver’s license just to get it in and out of parking.
6. This Rad Custom Van
There are plenty of ways to go ultimate. This little number does it by delivering maximum cool factor per-square-foot of parking space. The paint job. The monster tires. The exhaust. The absolutely unreasonable inches of lift. All together the thing screams ultimate. Park this at any college on any gameday, and you’re sure to be the talk of the parking lot.
7. The Best-Ever Real-World Example of Business Up Front, Party in the Rear
There are a million ways to skin an RV cat, and an intrepid customizer found a road less traveled. The absolute audacity of turning a sawed-off shotgun of an Astro van is something that has to be seen to be believed. And I refuse to stop believing.
8. This No-Frills Custom Job With Nothing But Party in Mind
There’s a simplicity to this custom job that sports 34 feet of party, the whole party, and nothing but the party. You’re going to have to pick the right place to park it, so you can fully extend the 16-foot patio, but this Dune Sport custom toy hauler brings a different level of Ultimate. And we like it. Ultimately.
9. A Back-to-School Special
I don’t use the word “fabulous” very often, but here the shoe fits. This renovated beauty puts the cool back in “school”. There’s just something cosmically balanced about a schooly at a tailgate. Plop a few folding chairs next to this thing, fire up a grill, and I can pretty much guarantee everything will feel right with the universe.
10. This RV That’s Basically the Four Seasons On Wheels
One of the beautiful parts of RVing to your next tailgating destination is that easy crash after the game. This might be the ultimate place to lay your head after a long, hot morning in the sun. It’s the perfect place to recover from a heartbreaking loss, an earth-shattering win, or anything in between.
