I am a travel nurse and we are seriously considering buying a 16 foot scamp to full time in. With our tow vehicle it just isn't possible to get larger trailers and buying a new vehicle isn't an option. Does anyone here full time in their scamp? We will have 2 kids, 2 dogs, and a cat. We know space will be tight, but it's just as tight in the hotels we stay in. Would much rather take our home everywhere with us! Would love to hear other folks experiences!

Does anyone full time with a family?
We plan on towing with our 2018 minivan. We travel very light right now, what doesn't fit in the minivan doesn't go!
Love to hear of these type of adventures getting underway. Several people FT in Scamps and we have some blog resources located here: https://www.scampowners.com/rv-travel-blogs
One caution, depending on the minivan, I have heard that extended towing with the minivans even within specs has caused some issues with the transmissions. I would check thoroughly on the specs and maybe talk with the dealer about it first. I definitely would make sure it has a tranny cooler added if it doesn't have one.
Keep us posted on how this progresses.
