i think the new scotty is a good design.
my wife and i agree no toilet or shower. minimal water tank for galley.
we always use the campground facilities , and that eliminates winterising and maintinance of that part of the plumbing, plus reduces weight.
a dinette in the rear, which would mostly be left made into a bed and a couch/bunkbed in the front much like the scamp 13 footer has.
and while i love the looks of the aluminium, i hate it when it gets dented,,,,and it always seems to get dented.
i would use led lighting threw out to stretch the battery power.
so far i think i like the scamp 13 footer to fill my needs.
but....i'm probably going to build a standy anyway.

1. Enough room for a queen size bed.
2. Large exterior door for storage.
3. Porta potty that could be serviced manually, or with a dump gate valve when in campgrounds. Similar to the cassette toilet, but we all know it's not readily available in the US. Perhaps a toilet on a slide out mount inside, with a black tank underneath. Would be nice to have the black tank slide out from underneath, and or hook up to campground sewer. This concept may have to many moving parts to have a successful outcome. :-(

If and when dry camping bring a true porta potty, and not use the built in would be an alternative. Then I can imagine the built in on a slide out, and gate valve.
