Little Fifth Wheel
For some odd reason, I'm mesmerized by small fifth wheels. I took a picture of this one from the campground this past weekend.

Scamp makes an interesting molded fiberglass fifth wheel. See them occasionally. 19 feet.

Nah, the only call I would have considered making is, "Man, can I see it inside?".

I saw a similar one in Petit Jean SP in Arkansas last year. And I too found myself staring at it. My wife had to come get me one time because she said people were starting to talk....lol

I guess I should crop that out- but I'd be awfully intrigued if you can get actual numbers off of what's in the picture. That card is so faded that I have to tilt it to catch the light to read the numbers with the card in my hand. And, it doesn't help that it's cracked a third of the way through it...

The detail is amazing, right down to the awnings and day/nite shades.

I remember spending a ton of time just reading his build thread- never mind actually building the thing!

Sorry - I see credit card and think "shopping!". Just kidding.
I didn't check but unless someone can see the numbers or there is more information that I noticed the pic should be harmless.
