Ringo's caravan is an unmarked location in the Mojave Wasteland in Fallout: New Vegas.
Background[]
Around October 12, 2281, a sub-gang of Powder Gangers led by Joe Cobb ambushed this Crimson Caravan camper on its return trip to the New Vegas branch to extort the caravan for being in Powder Ganger territory.[1][2] According to Joe Cobb, Ringo, the head of the caravan, refused and opened fire on the Powder Gangers who returned in kind.[1] The outlaws killed the two guards and their pack brahmin. However, Ringo managed to thin their numbers and flee from the rest, escaping to the nearest safe haven he could – Goodsprings.[3] Since then, the townsfolk have been sheltering him, though it's caused a bit of a divide as to whether they should hand over Ringo to protect their home from being destroyed by the Powder Gangers.[2][4]
Layout[]
Situated northeast of Jean Sky Diving, the location consists of a hitched camper in the middle of Interstate 15 with the bodies of the two guards and the pack brahmin strewn around it and its supplies raided by the Powder Gangers. The male guard has his armor and supplies still on him, but the female guard had been stripped of her armor and supplies. Supplies can also be found on the deceased pack brahmin that lays further up the road.
Notes[]
- When first visiting Ringo's caravan, two additional powder gangers will run up to the female guard.

Joe Cobb: "He's some trader who decided he'd rather shoot than pay the toll for being in our territory. He's hiding somewhere in town. Would serve these idiots right if me and my guys shot the place up after we got payback on Ringo."

Trudy: "It looks like our little town got itself dragged into the middle of something we don't want anything to do with. About a week ago, this trader, Ringo, comes into town. Survivor of an attack, he says. Bad men after him, needs a place to hide. We figured he was just in shock, so we gave him a place to lie low. We didn't actually expect anyone to come after him."

Ringo: "My caravan was on the return trip from California and heading back up to the company branch in New Vegas when we got jumped. Not even a "drop your weapons and hands up" before the bullets started flying. We put up a good fight, but there was too many of them. I took a few of the bandits down before I ran, so I figure their friends are out for revenge."

Trudy: "We'll keep that in mind. Now, if you're not going to buy something, get out."
