The best advice

Usually the best advice will always appear from someone else . Since I've yet to see it , I'll pass it on ; ---- go to any fiberglass rally & check out the many different units & their mod.s . The campers are always happy to show their rigs . I have a 13 Scamp , 1 propane tank ,a ref. , & use a tiny el. heater . I removed the front bunks , & had a custom mattress made in place of narrow front bunk . My unit is lighter than most in keeping with simplicity.

I will check out the rally schedule. Nice idea about removing the front bunks.

Last year the base price was 19,900 and includes bathroom with portapotty, stove, microwave, ice box.
Options include things like upgrade to flush toilet, upgrade to refridge, screen door, AC, furnace, bunk bed. I think ours is coming in around 25K. My understanding is the price will be increasing this year.

I had a conversation with management and they are in a major reorganization. They will be setting up 'dealerships' so a person can see what they are getting before putting down 25% or more for a sight unseen unit at a factory somewhere, maybe 1000 miles away, that you will have to go pick up.
You are pretty close on the prices with only a small increase for the new year.

Dealerships usually have a significant markup on these units but will often compete for a sale. Shop around.

You're right on that one but it's like buying a car, no one ever pays the asking price..lol
