If you haven't watched the Scamp you tube video that you can access through the Scamp website, you really should. It goes through the models, options and then the build. They did a great job as it used to be just a pitiful website, seriously, it was bad and selling factory direct, I am betting the money that went into it really was worth it. You get to see how the shell goes together, the floor, the tanks being secured underneath, etc. I wish all the other manufacturers did something like that.
http://www.scamptrailers.com/ I also like the maintenance videos they have on the website.
I really wish that the Scamp mfg. installed the lowprofile roof airconditioner to make the Scamp more streamlined looking. I hate those darn ole big units on our Scamp roofs. The mfg. installed air conditioners take away from the great design of the Scamp to me. I still plan to look into having this done on my own in the future, I need information on roof support etc. to compare but that is my personal thought on the air conditioners. The rest of our Scamps is unique. Anyone installed the lowprofile type air conditioners, if so what name brand fit and any problems converting such as weight etc?? This photo is similar to what I am thinking of.

I quite agree. The low-profile AC is more in keeping with the sleek lines of the Scamp.
I am guessing they don't put them on because of the additional cost of the lower profile. When you trying to price your product, little extras really do add up. I like the sleek ones also but when we purchased the pop-up, he said he would throw in a free AC if we purchased the one with lots of other options. So, we have AC and anyone is better than none at all.

Yes, the footprint of the AC on the Scamp is minimal compared to its performance on 98 degree days!

We spent 6 summers living just north of Tucson in Marana when my husband was working at the Army National Guard Facility there for a contractor. You keep hearing "But it is a dry heat." I have also lived in the south, Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina, the "wet" heat. Comparing the two, the only thing I came up with is you either bake in the dry heat or steam in the wet heat so I guess it just matters which way you want to "go". We had to order ice cream from Schwann's when we lived in Marana because we couldn't keep it from melting on the way home (10 minutes) from the grocery store.
I would have to admit with the temps we are having now and the snow, the desert sounds kind of good. I always miss AZ in the winter. Got my eye on snowbirding at a minimum. We loved Gilbert Ray Campground and the Desert Museum, listening to the coyotes............

Lol, dry heat means that even when it is 110 we can sit out on our patio as long as it is in the shade, be comfortable, and there's no bugs. Also, no hair dryers needed or wet clothes sticking to you before you get to work.
Wet heat means that if it is 90 you can't sit outside and be comfortable shade or not, and the mosquitos/bugs will carry your children away.
Having lived in both, we personally prefer the dry heat but some of our friends like wet.

Well, we are under a severe snow storm for this late winter! We hope and pray this is winters last hurrah! March is out transition month, and we welcome it. April is our break out month and May is our break out trips planned.
