This is the (definitive?) response I got from Tammy at Escape tonight:
"Thank you for your email.
In regards to your truck bed height the Escape 5.0TA tows best with a box height between 54” - 56” . If your truck bed is between 56” – 58” then we would strongly encourage you to opt for the Highlift Axle. However, we cannot accommodate a box height greater than 58”
Please feel free to forward any questions you may have."
For our truck, we measure 57", so I think we need the high axle. . Another inch and it sounds like the Escape wouldn't be an option for us!!
It does contradict the information Drumstick said above. Thoughts?
I personally feel comfortable and reassured in ordering the 5.0TA with the high-lift axle based on Tammy's reply.
