Hi -
I've been lurking around for a few months and am getting serious about trying to find a trailer. This will be our first trailer and I love the idea of
Scamp or
Casita b'c I'd like to haul with my 6 cylinder minivan.
I wondered if anyone could help me with a few questions:
- does anyone know if on a
Scamp 16' that has the side dinette - can that dinette be converted to bunks? Ideally, I'd like to find a layout 4, but it seems as though Scamps are hard to find and lots have the dinette option.
- on the 13' Scamps that sleep 4 -- do any of you put a porta-potty in them? Ideally, I'd like to have a toilet, at least 4 beds and as small as possible so I can tow with my minivan. So a 13' with some sort of marine toilet seems like it would foot the bill, but I'm not sure if I'm being too naive to think that is a workable solution with kids in the middle of the night.
- I've seen some Scamps that have been renovated to remove the rod iron posts in the kitchen cabinets. I've also read that those posts are structural. If I were to buy one that was removed, could I just reinstall the posts??? Or would there likely be more damage that I'd be buying b'c of that mod.
- Lastly, are there any
Scamp owners in Phoenix/Tucson/Flagstaff on this board that might be open to hosting me to tour their trailer? I'd love to at least see one b'f purchasing from an out of state listing.
Thanks so much for any help you can give!!
