Solve the two meanings of caravan
The central joke is the double life of caravan. In one lane, it is a rolling home that borrows a car's engine, with a hitch, tow ball, awning, pitch, and stabilizer jack to keep it useful at camp. In the other, it is a line of camels carrying goods across a desert, where wells, stars, a guide, a pack saddle, and the Silk Road replace campground equipment.
That switch lets a clue sound domestic while the answer turns historical, or sound ancient while the answer is a trailer part. When a clue asks for a house on wheels, expect caravan; when it mentions a camel's roadside salad bar, think thorn bush. Repeated caravan answers are deliberate: they reward spotting which meaning the wording has parked beside.
