One noteworthy thing from what I found is that a common technique for RVs is for them to sort of “expand outwards once they’r parked”. i.e. they have some collapsed sections that you don’t drive around in, but let them be “bigger on the inside.”
One could combine the effects to get even more room. And in fact I am not sure what bolting the parts together really accomplishes. You could have one RV with good kitchen and no bedroom and another with no kitchen and good bedroom. Then the downside would be taht you would have to go outside when changing rooms and exposing two outdoors for anyone trying to break in (and maybe the hassle whether you want to lock the doors when you are not present in one half or move through the doors). You could lay mats or other pavement to faciliate movement from one to the next.
One could maybe also make the modules link together water and data connnection wise? Then the whole network would only need one outward connection point. We don’t plug appliances into powered stands, we plug them into the wall.
A very low-tech option that would require less development woud be to just repurpose a parking carrage as as a RV park. That would get density a lot closer to skyrises. But marketing wise living in a parking tower seems like a challenge. What kind of improvements would need to be made into a parking tower to turn it comparable to a suburban neighbourhood or just the experience of elevatorspaces and hallways of a aparment highrise?

I think this is an example (not 100% sure)
