A person who travels and camps using an automobile, or a vehicle equipped for camping and traveling.
From 'autocamp' plus '-er' (agent suffix). Formed in the early 20th century to describe the new class of recreational travelers.
The autocamper represented freedom—a middle-class revolution where ordinary people could explore vast landscapes without trains or hotels. This is why 'autocamping' became a cultural movement in the 1920s.
