How exciting! I love watching all these beautiful hatching's. We are excited today also. Got a call from ETI and they have moved our hatch date up to Sept 2016 from October. This will give a month for camping.

I'll be watching also as I endure the long wait for mine.

Question: Are those all the pictures ETI sent you. I'd love to see all pictures and not sure when people post if all or just the best ones. I'm all for more and more details

Lol, Cathy. That would be Farenheit, even though it will be in close proximity to the maple leaf.
Jeff, those are all the pics I've received so far. March will come quick for you and perfect timing for camping season.

Greg looking good! Are those two plywood reinforcements with the wires for overhead ceiling lights? How about that larger one, is that for an antenna?

Regards,

Matt

Thanks, Matt.
I'm assuming the two similar ones are lights and the square one up front is for the Jack Antenna option.

That's correct. We had the same supports.

Got more build pics today. We worried about picking out custom vinyl flooring, but I think it is going to be a good choice now that we can see it.

Looks great Greg. We used to have a slate floor on our old house and it reminds me of that.

Thanks, Emile, Mary, Robert.
Your right on Robert, it is called Colorado Canyon Slate.

Question for 19 owners. On the third build pic on the previous page you can see a plywood box that covers the black tank and protrudes into the PS bench of the dinette. Is that there in the finished trailer and taking up that space under the dinette bench?

Yes. The black tank is not outside the shell like the gray tank. On mine, the surge protector panel and the inverter/remote are mounted on the bench face, and the stuff behind them would make that a less than ideal storage area anyway. Having said that, there is "some" storage space there.

I agree with Robert's description.

My guess is that "PS" means "passenger side", but this is the driver's side. Doesn't matter...

This arrangement is very common in small trailers, and it's the only practical way to fit a large enough black tank it above floor level.

Thanks, Robert. Didn't know the surge panel was there, makes sense that it's not good storage space anyway.

Hi Erik, congrats the wait is almost over. I really like the flooring. Would you be so kind and tell what brand and model it is? Where did you purchase it and how did you get it to Escape. Thanks, Kevin
