Roger, that sounds great! To answer your question, I believe the Lil Snoozy can be purchased absolutely empty if you wish. So I'm sure if you want to have a few things in there (bed platform, cabinetry?) but not other things (like sofa, for instance), they can do it. The Snoozy is not supposed to need any bulkheads or anything inside to lend structural rigidity; therefore it's probably the most ideal choice for what you have in mind. By contrast, Scamps, Casitas and the like have benches and stuff molded in, and some of the inside stuff is actually needed to support the egg.

That's just what I wanted to find out. I'll be calling them tomorrow to discuss further. I'll let you all know what is going on. Thanks again!

Sorry for my late reply, Roger. I've been out all day. Ditto to what Mike said.

Scamp Construction

At least in my Scamp, all interior fiberglass bulkheads are screwed in and can realtively easyily be removed.

It is also my experience that all the internal components greatly strengthen the structure. I suspect that any of the Fiberglass units can be towed without their internals but I'm certain that all of them are a lot stiffer with their internal components.

Scamp actually will sell a "Blank Slate." No windows, etc. But, it comes with an egress vent on the roof and a closet across from the door. Something has to hold the roof up and Scamp won't sell it without door framing or the closet because of that reason.

+1 Pretty sure you can buy one empty as I talked with Nick about that.

A few new facebook photos posted. A bit larger porta potti and cubby for it, but does not look like the 5 gallon model. Hard to tell.

i haven't been in on this thread yet, but just thought i'd add my 2 cents worth. i really like the look of this parkliner. it is clean, the storage is excellent and the queen sized bed makes me green with envy. i think i'll check out both parkliner and l'il snoozy if we decide to head south this winter.

This might go well with the parkliner porta potti route

Hey NC folks, is it true Hunger Games fans are flocking to Henry River Mill Village, NC? I see it's about an hour and a half from Gibsonville/Parkliner. I wondered if it has been in your local news.
