Welcome. As for Scamp 13 shopping, the 13 is one of the most popular fiberglass trailers due to the fact people have smaller tow vehicles and it is a good starter fiberglass unit at a good price point and as some say it has a cute factor. Nice older non bath units usually run $3-6 K. There are exceptions but most under $3K will require work. Trailers over 15 years old will more than likey require a new axle and trailer brakes are also a consideration if you are close to your vehicle tow limit. You should equip yor truck with a 7 pin RV jack and have a 2" and 1 7/8" ball available since the older ones use the smaller ball. Also any trailers over 5 years old you should figure it will need tires.

   There are several checklist found on other sites to check out trailer condition. Do your homework first because when deals show up you will need to move fast. When shopping it is best to have a budget and immediate access to cash because the deals don't last long. If you contact Scamp they will hook you up with a local owner to tour their trailer.

   If you do your homework and pick up a nice used trailer and keep it up In most cases you can get close to what you paid for it since they hold their value very well. With a new trailer you will take a hit at first but after two years their prices are fairly stable.

Good luck on your search.
