Just finalized my build sheet and wanted to say Thanks!!!
Now that we have gone thru months of deciding what to include on the build sheet for our 19, I would like to reach out to the members of this forum and say thank you. Almost every time I had a question, I did a search and somebody had already asked and answered it. So to all of the newbies that came before me and asked the questions and all of the "old timers" to the forum that answered them - thank you!!!
A special thanks to MyronL down here in the Land of Enchantment for letting us come out and see his trailer before we decided to buy. It really was a critical factor in our decision.
We'll be heading up to Chilliwack at the end of July to pick it.

Not much chance of that...
I'm excited about the adventure and the next phase of my life. Interesting comment though

Hi John
I don't think Jim meant changing your mind about buying an Escape he meant order a different size cause he's the only guy I know who went up to an Escape, up to a 21 and down to a 19. There's money on the next one, some like the TA possibility, others are
Back to a 21, the long shot is a 17.

And then there's those crazy rumors about a 23, a slide out, a toy hauler, and reincarnated 15s and 13s.

In the same boat
We too have finalized our build sheet for a 19ft to be completed in late July. I have spent many hours reading discussions about options, modifications, etc. and believe we have the perfect Escape trailer for our needs. The forum discussions have been invaluable. Thanks to all.

The last build sheet I sent to Escape before the build started was Revision 11.

Good going for you all to finish your build sheet. I often suggest that people not sign until they must because there are so many possibilities and changes taking place. We spent a few months on it and finally ran out of time on a last couple of items. If you still have time, you could actually perfect it a little more probably when you read someone's comment about something that you did not know and now you need to make a change.  . In any case, good luck with your Escape decisions and enjoy that perfect trailer for you.

Woo-hoo! Best I can count, that makes six Escapes here in the Land of Enchantment.

Even after my third Escape there are items now I wish I had done differently, so it is in a constant state of flux. But those items are getting smaller and smaller over time.

Escape trailers are great for people who love to tinker, customize, and always think of ways to improve. We placed an order for a 21, changed to 5.0TA, cancelled order due to move, then restarted order for the 21. Which we have enjoyed for the past year.
Really the only change that would have us buy a new one, is a walk around queen bed, Lengthen the camper, move bathroom to the aisle, and increase size of the dinette so it too can be a queen. I would place my deposit for the very first one! With my back challenges, sometimes it is hard with the 21 bed, but I love our camper!
