Roaming Times' reader quote:
"...bought a 17ft. Spirit Deluxe 2 years ago. I have tried (for whatever reason) to find a trailer that appears better than the Casita for size, weight, quality, style, comfort and I cant! This trailer is fantastic (for me anyway). "

Typical ScamTom- The 3rd party works in concert with the scammer. It's a typical internet ploy.
TomHave been offered a 2002 Spirit Deluxe on terms identical to those noted in a "scam alert" posted on-line. Anybody familiar with this type of arrangement where $$ are held by third party until the unit is accepted? Seems a very good deal, but also a good way to be scammed. Advice appreciated
Stevenlooking for a 2008 or newer 17" casita Spirit, with many options, near Southern California
A.C.Sold
JDIve been looking for any small camper Scamp, Casita, Burro, R-Pod or similar. Willing to travel most anywhere in Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska or Oklahoma. E-mail me jd@kansasmonks.org
RDDo you have your Scamp for sell?
A.C.Tom- It's all preference. Both are quality trailers and you'll enjoy either one of them; but we prefer Scamp. We've had both and I can tell you we like the inside of the Casita better because of the light color scheme. The outside of the Scamp looks much nicer to us. With Scamp, the customer service is outstanding. With Casita, not so much. Each time I've ordered parts from Casita, they either don't have them or obtaining an answer to a question is almost impossible. Again, it's all preference. See both if you can. We will be selling our 1998 16' Scamp at the end of the season. We live in Northern Colorado. You're welcome to see it if you happen to live close.
TomCasita 16 or Scamp 16 what is the difference? My wife and I live in Colorado and are trying to decide on a small light weight trailer less that $15K.

Rattlesnake JoeCan you pull a 17 foot Casita with a V/6 engine? Sure if you live in Kansas and don't have any mountain passes to climb. I tried to pull mine with 3.5 Liter v/6 Isuzu Trooper SUV. I had a train of cars and trucks behind me on the mountain passes out here in the west. I now have a Toyota Tundra Pick Up with 4.7 liter v/8. It works now much better and I seem to tow like magic hardly even knowing that I am. So get a v/8 and save your nerves and relax as you climb those mountains with power and ease.
