Just saying hello.

Wondering if anyone will be in Florida and give me a chance to look at their Fiberglass RV. Thinking about purchasing one 19-23 feet. I would appreciate it.
Thanks

Hi Jack, to FiberglassRV.

The only all molded towables in that size range are: Escape, Oliver and Bigfoot. Although Scamp does make a 19' 5th wheel.

Best of luck

And the Scamp 19 looks extremely ugly...

I take offense to that, as I feel other 19' owners would to. We are as proud of our units as I'm sure you are of yours. I'll leave it at that.

I always heard that beauty is in the eye of the beer holder.

Roger, I resemble that remark.

Jack, I hope you find the fiberglass trailer that works best for you. It's out there somewhere.

Good luck,

Joe

Casita largest is a 17', but they have a program where they can get you in touch with someone close to you that lets you look at their trailer. Maybe the other fiberglass trailer companies have a similar program. Worth a try. Good hunting, and hope your find exactly what your looking for.

Ted, I love those Scamp 19's. They look like a camel! Very unusual.

Well, I can't leave this alone either. Mine looks perfectly fine... There are so many different and unique trailers, we should have a thread to show the best and worst looking ones. I think that would be fun, sort of like the Sightings.

As a plug for the Scamp 19 I would say that it is very practical, plenty of room, tows perfectly (anti-sway bar - what is that?) and the overall length of the rig is the same as Scamp 16. I measured it myself and got 31 or 32 feet, but the Newfoundland ferry people told me I squeezed under 30' and gave me a refund. The looks is just one part of the consideration.
