2012 Model Changes

Hi Escape Family,

When we placed a build order in January for a new 5.0, Tammy had indicated a few minor changes for 2012 trailers. I haven't seen or heard of any forum discussion on what is new or different about standard production this year. Anyone know the details?

Enjoy your outings,
David

Re: 2012 Model Changes

A couple of things that Tammy mentioned to me when I was out at the factory.

The headliner now goes straight through to the upper bed area without a break near the wardrobe, valances are now installed above all window blinds, 120 volt outside plug and 12 volt plug inside are now standard as well as the trailers now have mud flaps and overhead inside lighting.

Re: 2012 Model Changes

If I recall correctly there is also a change in the door window...from clear to frosted? or vice versa?

Escape Family,

I would love to see photos of those changes when they are available. I heard the metioned of a larger gray tank?

Thanks, David
