Looking to buy small TT, suggestions appreciated.

I am looking to purchase a small (13ish') TT. I have been eying the Scamp or the T@B. I do like the retro style. Not looking for new as both are out of my price range. I like the idea of the Scamp with the burners and sink inside as opposed to the T@B being outside. Any suggestions on other brands that I should be looking at in this 13' category? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Casita would be a good choice. If you want retro, check the Tin Can Tourists site for trailers for sale.

Very interesting. No propane. Works great if you always have a 120V AC hook up. I think I might carry a Mr Heater Buddy Heater.

For small trailers, you definite need to look at eggshell style.

My brother-in-law bought one 2 years ago and really likes it.

Livin'Lit/Camplite no longer have aluminum floors except on the toy haulers.

Scamps seem to last forever with it being all fiberglass. Look at all the boats around that don't rust or rot. Even aluminum will pit through in years. The Scotty more than likely has more inside room than the teardrop campers...but the teardrops look sportier. Personal taste I guess.

That is a nice list. One note for the OP, Eureka's website has changed to https://www.eurekacamper.com/ They make some small, affordable trailers.

In the category of tiny pop-up trailers, there's also the Kompact Kamp Mini Mate, https://www.kompactkamptrailers.com/minimatecamper

Casita makes a trailer similar to the Scamp. Both have very high resale value and are in high demand.

There is a retro style small rv with new construction, can't think of the name of the mfg. Maybe another poster can remember.
