Cool pictures, glad it came thru unscathed. Seems odd to have a goose neck tow a fifth wheel, why not just your tow vehicle of have him tow it home? What is it with these drivers called Dave?

This is the most anticipated Escape delivery ever and I'm sure you can't wait to get 'er street legal. How very, very cool!

With all the attention the Escapes garner here in North America, I can't even imagine the looks you will get in Europe. Congratulations!

Hi Jim,

Our tow vehicle has not been delivered yet. His tow vehicle has the dutch coupler (half bowl/ball) so he can't tow the Escape.

Have fun!
