Hi from Indiana

We picked up our gently used Scamp 5th wheel a few weeks ago. The 800 mile return trip was a towing pleasure. Sure did made the right choice for ease of towing and gas mileage. The wife, dog and I have been camping 5 nights getting accustom to the Scamp and how to outfit her. This is our first ever camper so our learning curve is steep but this group has been very helpful. Having a blast and look forward to many miles ahead.

Welcome to the Forum from a fellow Hoosier!

You will find a wealth of information here and a bunch of nice people, too.

Hope you enjoy your new Scamp and getting it all set up.

Spanke

Dittos on the welcome and Hoosier thing. You might be interested in the Brown co. Rally Oct. 12-14. You will find several Hoosiers and a diverse assortment of eggs ranging from Companions ,Casitas, 13 and 16' regular Scamps and at least 1 UHaul. The leaves will be turning, Nashville will beckon and The food is pretty good too.
