4x4 Camper Rental
For those who think it's easier to annoy you than to Google '4x4 camper rental' themselves.
they are not jeeps but truck campers.
Thanks, I ran across Outdoorsy, but not full clear yet how it works? AirBnB for renting out your rig, I guess.4x4 Camper Rental

I had checked out one but that was leading nowhere, cannot start on that date, cannot end of that date etc.
Maybe need to research them a bit more, esp. around insurance and liability.

Rented RVs in GA for 2 years. Any questions give me a shout.Thanks, I ran across Outdoorsy, but not full clear yet how it works? AirBnB for renting out your rig, I guess.4x4 Camper Rental

Outdoorsy, rvshare, rvngo are all like Airbnb but with a huge catch. Insurance. Keep in mind that if the renter is using personal insurance and not a commercial brand like we used (MBA), in a claim event, they are most assuredly screwed and your liability goes up. Getting a rental rider on your side can help cover you and give “some” price of mind.
Just visited the East TN area and I saw a ton of companies renting Jeeps albeit without RTTs. So they are out there, just have to find them.
Best of luck!

I live in Southern California. I did a local search and came up with these. I used "California overland vehicle rental" as my search. Most of the rest of the results look like camper vans. If your not planning on going anywhere rough, Sprinter vans work very well out here. I have one in my off road group. What areas are you planning on visit? I have gps files of the popular areas out here as well as some hidden spots.
EDIT: just noticed you found cypress and was looking for LA/SD. The bottom two are those. My search results had quite a number of businesses. Most of which were LA/SD.
Cypress Overland
San Francisco Bay Overland
Topoterra

I was in a rally earlier this year in Baja and a couple of the participants had flown in from Lithuania and rented a Tacoma pop-up tent rig (orange truck on right) from Topoterra in the San Diego area. They just slapped some decals on the truck and bombed through the desert along with the rest of us and their vehicle was one of the few that seemingly did not have mechanical issues.
Cypress is sold out now (my fault, I can still not confirm exact dates).
I plan to do one week Joshua Tree and the area east of LA/SD.
But I'm coming from North, Lake Tahoe maybe, via Mono Lake (normal rental car). Flying back from San Diego. One way rental would be superb, but the fees may be too high.
Sprinter is not what I am looking for, but I may end up with...
Thanks for the links. Top terra I had missed, good selection, but pricy .
Hello again,
just wanted to conclude on this topic. I ended up withn TopoTerra and it was an excellent choice. I was lucky that they had a rig for one-way Sacramento to San Diego, at the dates I needed.... that way I could save a lot of time and hassle with (not) switching rentals.
It was a huge Power Wagon, while I would have preferred a smaller truck like a Tacoma, it was a lot of fun,, and hey, everything is bigger in America :-) Never had so much space before, the crew cabin is bigger than my livving room, the truckbed offers enormous space, never had to worry how to pack or where to squeeze something in. The outside compartments are fantastic, everythig is easily accessible.
The rig is fully equipped, also for off-grid travel, compressor, tyre deflation, repair kits, Jackerys (2), kitchen, headlamps, sleeping, everything.
A clear recommendation.
