Re: Factory fresh pics of a 5.0 in production.

I thought it was to toggle from exterior 12v battery to interior 12v battery.

No... in our 5.0 build, we opted for the standard one 12vt. Also I included the water accumulator pic that I installed afterwards.

Re: Factory fresh pics of a 5.0 in production.

Thanks for the compliment. Let's not forget that this subject is not about "showing off" but about helping those behind me who need more 5.0 pictures and pryor experience . And to show the quality, flexability, and service that Escape strives to provide with each and every trailer. They are not a cookie cutter operation. Probably no two trailers are exactly alike. I had them build what fits our needs and likes which may be different from any other.

As for the accumulator J-Mac, it's a good modification to reduce water pump cycling. It helps reduce wear & tear on the pump/motor, reduce 12vt. power consumption and noise. About $60.00 and one hour to do.

Howdy,
Posting more pictures of our completed trailer again to give others a visual. What your looking at is the front compartment that holds the propane bottles. I had Rease & company mount my regulator assembly lower to accumulate #11lb. bottles. I plan to build a storage shelf above them. And a picture of under the 5th wheel frame & trailer area.

The next pic is the control switches mounted inside the drivers side front storage compartment for the front power jacks. And looking under the trailer front to back with the black tank in view.

Next pic is looking back to front under the trailer at the axle. And the area of the freshwater tank, low point drain, and water level tube.

Re: Factory fresh pics of a 5.0 in production.

The next pic is of the power bathroom vent. There was some discussion around bathroom windows, vents, and natural light.
And a better pic of the microwave built over the 5cf frig.

Hi: Daveandsandyclink...Just a thought. How about a removable shelf that will sit on top of the gas bottles? Easily taken out for refills. Alf
