NO LONGER FOR SALE: 2006 13' Scamp

Our family of four has had many happy camping trips in this Scamp. But now that our kids have grown, we are looking to upgrade.

This Scamp has factory installed roof mount AC, electric brakes, 3 speed fan, and three way refrigerator. We also had a 2 inch receiver welded on the back of the scamp for a bike rack or cargo carrier.

There is a custom mattress made for the dinette since it was primarily used as a bed. Original cushions and covers are included. The front end of the scamp is the sofa/bunk layout. No bathroom.

Included is also an after market cover for the trailer. Asking $6,500.

Hi Rmartin,

Yes, the dinette is still usable. It has a drop down table to convert it into a bed.

It is a 30 amp plug in to a campsite with electric and a 7 pin round connector to your tow vehicle.

It is snowing here in PA, when the weather is nicer I will post some indoor pictures. But it is the Scamp standard layout with dinette and sofa/bunk front. You can check their website for pictures of the inside. It is in good condition.

We are asking $6,500 but price is negotiable.

Hello Wendy. I'm very interested. For some reason I can't bring up the picture you loaded. Could u send directly to me?
Also I'll have to buy a porta potty- is there a place to store it? I have to install a tow hitch will do shortly. I live in Cary nc (used to live in Poconos),so it's a long ride so. Your pictures are important my email is rmartin057@hotmail.com

Thanks

A few people have asked for inside photos of the camper.

The weather here is yucky right now where we are in PA, so please excuse us for not taking stuff out of the camper and making it all pretty for the pictures. We just snapped some quick photos so you can see what it looks like on the inside.

I forgot to mention that the cabinet above the sofa/bunk is wired with two speakers and a radio/cd player. You can kind of see it in the picture.

The dinette is pictured with a custom made mattress. We have the original cushions and covers stored else where.

Please note that this camper is currently set up for city water only. We took out the fresh water spigot to free up a little more counter space
and we took out the fresh water tank so there is a little more storage space in the compartment that it was in. You can reattach a fresh water tank and a fresh water spigot if you prefer.

There are two electric outlets and many lights in the camper. It is bright and cozy when all set up.

Hi Jon,

There is a screen door to the camper. There is no water heater. We use an electric water kettle to heat water to do dishes, etc.

We no longer have the fresh water tank. But check out Ian G.'s idea from his thread "It started as a kitchen reno" page 8. His idea is awesome and I think its better than a fresh water tank.


quote from Ian G.

"The water system uses an external 5 gallon insulated cooler that I installed a quick connect fitting in place of the spigot. The braided steel line leads directly to the electric water pump. We have used this system for the past 2 years and it works great, easy to refill, in really hot weather we add a block of ice."

We have decided to keep our Scamp for now. We were enticed by the new R-Pod floorplan R179 that is coming out this year, but in the end we realized our minivan wouldn't be able to handle it.

Thank you to all who were interested.

Dear Wendy,

Just want to tell you, we had an R-pod. I thought it was really cute, but one thing we HATED was we could only stand up in the middle. Doing dishes or cooking I felt like I had to hunch over and it was worse for my husband who is taller.

Also, the wheels stick out farther than the camper, so my husband didn't like having to keep that in mind driving it to keep the wheels on the road. We sold ours and I would not buy one again. Sure would be nice to rent what you want to buy before hand so you can learn about it better before making such a big purchase.

Gretchen, that is so true.

It would also be nice to be able to afford a small collection of campers. For what ever suits your mood or purpose.

Thank your mini van. I too think Your dream would not have been a good choice.

I really like our 13 for traveling, such an easy tow. But we keep thinking of that three foot extra with the 16. We don't need the headroom so our old 13 fits us fine. If one of us was tall we would then go for a new Scamp for sure.

Wendy, the 16 we want is the Scamp layout #7. No bath. Just like the 13 with a side dinette and a small, really small kit next to the closet. To keep weight down we would not have a refrigerator. those big refers stick out into the alley too much anyway, I get closed in feeling in the nice casitas with side dinette.

Very few 16 scamps are built with the layout we like.

If you haven't attended a fiberglass rally you really should to see what is being made now. I would not want an R-Pod...even if we could handle the weight.

Nancy, I would love to attend a fiberglass rally. I'll have to check for one around me in the future.

We bought our 13 footer without actually seeing one in person beforehand. But now I would love to check out a Scamp 16 or Casita 16 with the side dinette and front bath layout. I hope that will still be an easy tow with our '08 Nissan Quest minivan (tow capacity #3500).

That layout won't sleep four easily, but maybe my two girls and I can squeeze into the larger sleeping area and hubby can sleep on the dinette part. Then when the girls are out of the house and its just the two of us, it'd be the ideal layout for us.

Wendy, If you haven't already, take a look at trailer weights in the real world thread. People do tow 16 foot trailers with mini vans. We won't unless we get a very basic one without options and work very hard at keeping the weight down.

the side dinette would make for a small bed. I would prefer the size of the front bunk, back removed over the side dinette for sleeping. If your husband can't take the size of the front bunk he would have trouble with the side dinette. Hip room of the front bunk is about 27 inches. side dinette is ?24 inches. Not sure how long the side is either. I never measured it as the front works better for us.

Wow, I looked at the specs of the R-Pods. those things are 18 inches wider going down the road than a Scamp.

Get to a gathering. They are fun.

Hi Wendy! We too LOVE our Scamp 13. Was just wondering where you got the custom mattress for the rear dinette?

Thanks!
