DIY all of it. If you go the Runaway route, a V-Series is $3,300 MORE than a base CoolCamp or RangeRunner, I sold mine for $3300, bought it new in 2018 for $3300 and put maybe 600 bucks into it. Kept the Jackery when I sold it.
I didn't have any fancy suspension or anything, when I put it on 285s, I put 4oz of balance beads in each tire to stop the resonant bouncing the little donut stock tires had, axle-flipped it with the stock leaf springs, and ran the trailer tires at 20psi. The tire shoulders still didn't touch the road at 20psi, but they soaked up every bump I threw at them.
I was on the move enough to charge the Jackery with the truck in transport and never had a need for solar, depending on your style of camping, you can make plenty of concessions.
