We ended up with a vintage Scamp 10 footer tiny trailer. Comfy enough beds for two adults and two kids, though at 6'2", I can't fully stand up in it. <br /><br />Happily enough for me, it has no toilet. Campground facilities or the woods are much better than hauling around and subsequently cleaning out a bucket by any name. Ours came with a vintage portapotty, but it departed out house post haste, missed by no one.<br /><br />The Scamp looks like a big egg, weighs about 900 lbs loaded, and is aerodynamic enough to pull well with my aging V6 4Runner, FWIW, Bob. Happy hunting. <br /><br />Congrats on your new rig, Pat. I'm envious of the rear hitch on your trailer.Andy D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01721273913834541311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1094176709529713758.post-63353577349937869352013-07-03T14:21:31.816-07:002013-07-03T14:21:31.816-07:00The challenge for me is that the wife and kiddo wo...The challenge for me is that the wife and kiddo would be more inclined to do the camping thing with some sort of trailer, a pop-up would be ideal because I could potentially pull it with an inexpensive v6 truck versus a v8 truck.

A real bathroom kicks the ante up by a few grand because it means a hard-sided trailer.<br /><br />Yes there are tent trailers with hokey toilets and even more hokey makeshift showers. A porta-potty is a (very) minor upgrade to NewlyFred's solution. Some might even prefer the bucket, although it leaves marks.
