New Camper

Greetings everyone.  Just signed on for the first time.  I just bought a new Scamp 16 Standard layout 6.  Love it.  I'm a "convert" from Casita.  I wanted the higher ceiling, larger fridge, and some other minor things I couldn't get from Casita.  Also I am in North Dakota and liked the fact that they were only a 5 hour drive from me.  Being built in Minnesota I also felt they they are more in tune to our Northern climate.

The ceiling is higher in the

I am surprised to learn that the ceiling is higher in a 16' Scamp than a 16' Casita: by how much?

Scamp interior height.

mccownw,  The Casita is 5'10" and the Scamp is 6'3".  I would have had to go to the Casita 17'.  Didn't want the weight.  That size about maxes out my mini van.  Would only have been able to use my pickup.

Welcome Gene

Glad to have you in the Clubhouse!

Casita lists their interior height as 5'10" on the 16 and 6' 1.5" on the 17.  Scamp 16 currently lists the interior height as 6' 3"

Ah, thanks.  Our '74 Scamp 13' is definitely NOT 6'3".  It is ca. 5'11".

13 Scamp Height

Wayne,

That's correct for pre-2005 13' Scamps.  The interior height specs above are for the current 16 Scamps.  

The really cool news is that the post-fire 13 Scamps after 2005 the interior height is 6' 3"  This is due to the 13 Molds being destroyed in the Scamp Factory Fire.  They built new 13 Scamp Molds from the 16 Scamp Mold which hadn't been destroyed.  So all the 13 Scamps after the fire are 6' 3" interior height just like the 16's.
