    We bought a brand new 13' Scamp for $1300 in 1976, enjoyed it for 30 years, then sold it for $1000.

    We spent last weekend with a couple on their gorgeous 40 foot diesel pusher Thor motorhome. Three pushouts, one and a half baths. They were so stressed out, they spent the entire time screaming at each other. It was so big and awkward to drive, hard to park, and yes, they smashed the side of it on a rock leaving the trailer park making a right turn. More screaming, more drama. We were parked next to a Casita 15 footer. We went over and talked to them. Happy, relaxed people. No drama, no problems.

      Well, we definitely still have drama, but I definitely feel more relaxed and calm with our park-n-go ride. This is a good point, though. The scamp is what we can handle. Thanks for watching!

    loved your story - and your Scamp. We bought a 17' Casita in January of 2019 and love everything about it. It has a bathroom that we use for additional storage! and use a lugable loo and lightweight kitty litter for the toilet facilitiy. Have a little pop up we can use if we want it out of the house :~) when we are camped. Put 10,000 miles on our first venture and had an absolutely wonderful time. Almost entirely boondocking or "moochdocking" at friends/family homes. We also bought a 9' clam which pops up in just (literally) a minute and provides an outdoor bug free environment when needed. Great advice - don't wait. Live now. We did some tent camping with the kids when they were small, but this is just a grandma and grandpa run away!

    The whole dreaded draining the black tank process that is played up in the Chevy Chase/ Bill Murray movies actually turns out to be remarkably simple and doesn't even set off alarms at Green Peace HQ. I approached mine with considerable trepidation, not even draining the tanks until the end of my second trip. When I finally did it I thought, this is what everyone is fearful of? It takes all of 5 minutes, you stash the hose in your trailer bumper, go inside and wash your hands at the sink (no, they don't turn filthy brown in the dump process), lock the trailer door and go on your merry way. Minimal fuss, little to no odor (you do have to be careful to secure your drain hose before you let the honey flow) and you are done in very short time. And it gets easier every time you do it. Your discussion of prices raised my eyebrows as you paid about what I paid for My Casita 17 Liberty in 2017. I guess I shouldn't be too shocked, it is 4 years later and there has been a huge surge in RV buyers (Covid). I don't think you should be too suspicious of the Scamp folks loading your trailer with options, by all accounts I have heard they are good people. All in all, as a former tent person myself, I think you will love this trailer for itself and when your kids get too big to even store in the house you can get a bigger trailer. Be safe!

    • @ladyandthescamp
      @ladyandthescamp  3 роки тому +3

      You make me laugh. We will probably be blackwater tank people someday, but this feels manageable for now. Maybe when I’m 70, I won’t want to empty out a pee bucket any longer. :) I know the Scamp people are good people...it was a bit of sticker shock, though. This is so much better than tent camping, though!

    • @instigator9896
      @instigator9896 2 роки тому

      Give it time...
      Enough campgrounds, enough 'black water' contributors. You'll find sites with dumps that are non-standard diameters, your dump tube will collect hard sediment that you'll need to blow out, pipe will degrade and split at the least opportune time, etc. It's ok at first but it goes downhill fast with use.
      For example, our 10th time out in the 22 footer. Dad goes to empty black, OH THE SMELL.... Non-standard dump site hose diameter but he can't stomach holding it in with his hands so he tries to use his foot... Mistake. "Let her rip" and rip it did. Right out from under his foot. It was like the 'old faithful' geyser except instead of water it was flying turds.

    @John-rw2zf 3 роки тому +3

    Have looked at the Scamp online many times. One of the biggest selling points to me is low exterior maintenance. Traditional travel trailer designs will require more maintenance over the years, especially on the roof. The membrane or skin used on the roof of most travel trailers is fairly thin and requires routine maintenance which is fairly costly if you don't do it yourself. If you develop a roof leak that makes its way into your flooring be prepared to spend a lot for repairs. I don't see that being a problem with fiberglass shells like the Scamp and Casita. However, if you have an auto accident with one, fixing a cracked or damaged shell might be tricky business. Personally, I think the Scamp is a great design. Just keep it washed and waxed or treated with whatever they recommend and it will likely last a very long time.

    The Casita 17’ we have on order is not going to be ready until sometime next year, 2023.
    We put a $2,000 deposit down on it about a year ago.
    It will cost considerably more than your Scamp, but, it’s a bigger trailer.
    It’s all those ‘options’ that you don’t want to live without that drive up the price.

      What with the pandemic, job losses, newly homeless, Nomadland and all the trillions being dumped into the economy it seems like YT is eat up with videos about new and used campers (Class A, B, C, etc), conversions (vans, box trucks, ambulances, deuce and a halves, school buses, ad nauseam), boondockers (in pickups, Prius’s, SUV’s, whatnot), and so on. Cousins came back from a month-long cross-country trip and had stories to tell about careless boondockers, over-priced campgrounds, jammed campgrounds, long lines to dump tanks, year-ahead reservations, hard-partying rednecks, generators all night, and on and on.
      It seems like gazillions of folks are crazy to buy, convert, and camp with anything on four (or six or eight) wheels. All this can’t end well. There’s gotta be a day of reckoning.
      Meanwhile loved your Scamp video - so well done! But, rather than shell out $20k or much more now I think we’ll wait until the bottom drops out and we can pick up a nice used one for half the price. 🤤

    my wife and i purchased a 2016 scamp, 13 ft with bathroom, a/c, awning. took us a long time to find but found one in Dallas, tx. paid 12k, we bought it 9 month old and kept it till 2019, sold it 15 minutes, for 13k. its a great camper but we are retiring and needed a little bigger camper so we purchased a new 1808fbs Winnebago which is perfect for our needs. It was hard to find that also but found a dealer in Spokane who made me a great deal Click it Rv.

    Congrats on the Scamp! The first summer I had my camper, I didn't want to use my camper's toilet. I have a portipotty, which I put in a pop up shower tent outside. I used it for just liquids. Add the toilet enzymes to it and it will not smell. They will liquefy solids, too, as well as rv toilet paper. However, I just had a small trash can I put paper in. I wasn't used to dealing with wastes. Having the portion potty is great to not have to go so far to restrooms in middle of night. Lol.

    • @ladyandthescamp
      @ladyandthescamp  2 роки тому

    LOL, great video. You were easy to listen to, and although my "baby" is 24 and on her own...I told my husband "Thank God the pandemic didn't happen while our daughter was little (although I did give up my research career to stay home with her...after 15 years, she was a HUGE surprise, ha). We truck and/or tent camp and have all the stuff, like you, for handling potty and cleanup. But, we have two little dogs and would like to be able to take them along at some point because house/pet care is expensive and sometimes hard to find. I have been following reviews of tear drops, "canned ham" type trailers, and Scamps, and I think the Scamp would be great. Hubby doesn't like the idea of towing something, so I would like to know if that has ever been a problem for you. We do live in Utah, but really, not all of our traveling/camping would require high clearance and 4WD. Thanks, and happy travels!

    • @ladyandthescamp

      We haven’t had any towing problems, knock on wood. But, the Subaru is maxed out pulling this with all our stuff. I love the scamp and think it’s not overwhelming to handle. And having two littles in a pandemic was the opposite of fun, for sure! I think dogs would fit fine in there with you! Thanks for watching!

    My sentiments about a bathroom in a RV, a cat litter box works well too. I lost my camper over 2 years ago, I still can't get use to a bathroom, I use a medical potty, it's mine, nobody else uses it, and it's easy to clean. As for a shower, I have an allergy to something that is in city water so I use wipes. I need to get another RV

      Thanks for the response. My husband is 6'3" and easy-going, so the fact that he can't stand in there doesn't bother him. He hits his head on everything, though. I made a video about all the measurements, so that might help you. I think 6 feet would fit, but you might check the measurements here: ua-cam.com/video/j_K25iT0xQU/v-deo.html
      I say go for it. Though, I can't lift it at all to get it on the hitch, so you might want to get that wheel roller thing. :)

    Totally agree with you on the grossness of blank tank and sewer hose. However I do love the ability to take shower that rv bathroom offers. On my way back from TX after picking up my casita, one day stopped at a hwy rest area, fired up the water heater, took a hot water shower in my casita. Afterward I felt like a new person. Being able to take hot shower anywhere is heavenly.
