Hi,
My son is in motorscoss (first year) and we usually camp beside the track in a pop up.? He is doing much better than his mother had hoped so we will be doing it again next year.? Our family numbers 4 and we have developed a serious case of portapottiephobia.? Most tracks do not bring in enough and by the afternoon, well, you get the picture.
We have been looking at class c rigs, toy haulers and trailers (not 5th wheels).? In our price range (under 20K) you can buy a 20+ year old class c with low miles..however, everything is 20 years old and we gather fridges, etc are expensive to repair.? Then there is the insurance, another vehicle to repair, etc.
The only real toyhauler that is on our range that we like is the fleetwood scorpion with I consider really nice but overweight and would require me to do a multi thousand drive to pick it up (or have it shipped).? From my contact with fleetwood, it seems to me that they really do not to sell trailers. The solid toyhailers that we have seen locally do not have a partition between the living quarters and the garage.
We have come across a 2002 Shamrock that appears not to be have been used much. Where can I go to find out any info on this rig (except for the manufacturer's site)? and what questions should I be asking ?
Is the fold out front a problem area?
I was also told that I would need a 3500 watt generator to run the a/c but I can run everything else off a battery ???
Lastly, is fall the best time to buy ?
Help ?
Thanks.
Ian.
