New from VA

From Virginia and just joined the forum. Been camping on and off all my life in anything from tents to trailers. My personal experience is with two previous 5th whls and that is what I want again. Time to do my research.

Welcome Joe.
Lots of fun ahead researching for a 5th wheel. I do believe that other than the Escape and Scamp offerings, used Bigfoots are/were the only moulded fiberglass ones made.

Perris also made a fiver. Very few and hard to find, though.

Also there was the Quantum.

Welcome Joe, I have two Scamp 19s if you want to take a look at them. They are located in the Northern Neck.

Bigfoot made a nice fifth wheel. They are so plentiful in western Canada, that they often sell for a very low price.
