01 What makes it unique
Scamp lists the Lite 16' at 1,650 lb dry, a GVWR of 3,500 lb and a tongue weight of 150 lb. Scamp prints no cargo carrying capacity for it, so none is given here; the federal label inside the trailer carries one.
It is 16′ long and 7′ 9″ high. Scamp prints no tank capacity for it.
Among the 2 Scamp Lite floorplans Scamp’s Scamp Lite model page on scamptrailers.com (no model year stated on the spec table) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 2 from the lightest, in a range from 1,250 lb (Lite 13') to 1,650 lb (Lite 16'). Every figure in that comparison is Scamp’s, read from the same set of model pages.
Every number on this page was read on 6 Nov 2026 from Scamp’s own Scamp Lite model page on scamptrailers.com (no model year stated on the spec table) for the Lite 16', which names no model year; the figures are shown as the maker published them, and no year is claimed for them.
How the 16' differs from the other Scamp Lite floorplan. How these ranks are worked out.
Next to the 13', the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the 16' is 400 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,300 lb higher, is 3 ft longer and stands 3 in taller; the two publish the same tongue weight and interior height.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Scamp does not publish for the Lite 16'
Scamp prints no cargo carrying capacity, tire size, grey-tank, black-tank, sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
1,250 lb dry and 2,200 lb GVWR, against this model’s 1,650 lb and 3,500 lb.
