Anyone selling a 15ft or 13ft Escape?
Greetings, my wife and I are still on the hunt for a 13ft or 15ft Escape Trailer. We are hitting the road on October 1st and hopeful that we'll find something before then. We are willing to drive basically anywhere in western Canada to pick it up. Thanks in advance for any leads, tips, or links.

Few 13' Escapes were built originally and a few more 15 footers are out there. If you are up for a new build, contact ETI. They are willing to slide-in these builds... but at this point you may need to take a 17' build slot. But, what do I know? Check with ETI, that will give you a definitive answer...
Otherwise, check ALL the molded forums frequently (hourly at least), because when a used 13' or 15' Escape comes up for sale... it will be sold quickly.
Best of luck!

When we picked up our 17, the 13 being discontinued. Reace told me that it was the hardest trailer to build.

Interesting. Maybe its because of the tight quarters?

That would be my guess, too. One reason routinely given for the relatively high cost of Airstream trailers, moulded fiberglass trailers, and Class B motorhomes (van conversions) is that - unlike most of their competitors - the interiors need to be built and fitted out within a completed shell. In contrast, many RVs interiors are built up on a floor, then the walls are assembled around them.
The 13' model would simply be the smallest place to work.
