When you look for gifts for RV owners, it can be hard to buy gifts for the camper who has everything.
You can get a little sneaky, though, and find out what they don’t have so you can buy the perfect gift. If they aren’t a solo camper, you can enlist their co-camper to do some recon to see if:
- They don’t have the thing you want to buy them
- They do want the thing you want to buy them
Be careful that they don’t talk it up too much, though, or they might make them want to buy it. If they do, make them stall so you can gift it to them before they actually do buy it.
That being said, we’re going to look at the less common gift for RVers first so you can find something for anyone. There is bound to be something in this category that an RVer hasn’t got in their RV—even after a long time of RVing.
