After seeing some pix recently of the new 21' Escape, I am wondering about the height of the dinette. When I visited Cpaharley (Jim) to see his 19' Escape, one thing I noticed is that I could barely see over the window sills when I sat at the dinette. Jim mentioned that the seats were actually 2" higher than normal but that still didn't help (I'm 5' 7", btw). I see the same problem in the pix that RickM posted here:

4th pic down, the seats are well below the windows.
But when I looked at pics of the 21 that keager posted here:

2nd pic down, the lady appears to be able to easily see through the windows. At first, I thought she might be tall but then I noticed the difference in the top of the back cushion vs. the lower window ledge. It's much smaller in the 21 indicating also that either the seats or higher or the windows are lower.
Since this was one of my reservations about considering an Escape trailer as my choice, if the pix of the 21 do show the ability to see directly out the windows, then I would be much more favorable to this trailer. I think one of the joys of having a trailer is to be able to sit and eat, read or have conversations while looking out at some beautiful views. That is an important factor for me.
Can anyone who saw the 21' at the rally confirm this? Or could the 19' be adjusted somehow to get this level of viewing?
Thanks for any information you can give.
