    Scamps have 'rat fur', a marine headliner thats like fuzzy velour. Casita's have shag carpet. quite different :D

    The Escape has a smooth foam backed vinyl liner, similar to modern commerical airliners. Mine has the optional extra insullation under this, which consists of 2 layers of reflectix and a layer of 1/4" black neoprene, this combined with double-layer windows, makes it not only warmer or cooler inside, but also quieter if you're in a noisy environment like taking a nap at a truck stop next to some diesel trucks idling away.

    We have (soon had) a Casita. The Escape is a way nicer trailer in many ways, but its also a 21' instead of 16' (most Casitas now are 17', and Escapes come in 17, 19, and 21). Bigger bed with a real mattress, bigger shower+toilet, nicer kitchen area, bigger fridge, a REAL OVEN, twice the battery capacity (dual golf cart batts instead of a single group 27M), more storage all over, etc etc.

    Thats good info. My wife is sold on the casita style but cant get over the shag carpet. Looks like I may need to expand the budget and look for an escape.

    ooooh. put me on your list as really interested in this! I might not show up in the soon-to-be-sold Tacoma, but hey! maybe we could camp up along Deer Creek (sr 32) that night afterwards...

    I have a way better spot. It's not far from Paradise and there's a creek and stream fishing. Quite a private spot too.

    btw. let me say this about that. GOOSE ISLAND SUCKS. stupidly picked up a mixed case of it at Costco when I was in Reno last weekend visiting my son. yuck. didn't realize it was a chicago brewery who'd been bought out by InBev.

    i was going to say check the butt/crimp connector at radio first, never seen a wire go bad unless amp is under the seat and someone moved the seat and pinched/cut wire going to the amp while adjusting the seat position.
