Yes! It took us a good two months of researching the forum to find these options and customizations.
We wound up getting several more standard options this second time around.
But we also did some logical customizing too. Such as, adding strategically placed outdoor lights and indoor receptacles. I also got a higher “throne “, as my muscles are quite weak. Then, we are having the back cushions halved, so they’re not as unwieldy.
Perhaps the biggest item we changed was the U-shaped dinette. We are going with the Springfield pedestal, and cutting down the standard table so when the table is recessed, putting a cushion on it will make this area into a lounge.
Then, we customized the fabric. I chose a fabric that (I believe) is safer, (polyurethane), with out PVC or toxic chemicals.
I’ll have to start a thread about that, as I’d like to share the discount resources I’ve found that supplies this fabric. ($17-$30/yd as opposed to $70/yd.). Of course, it’s hit or miss regarding the colors that they have.
It’s called Ultrafabrics Brisa. Unlike vinyl, it’s “breathable “. Feels like butter! It stays cooler in warm weather and vice versa. No sticking to your skin either.
So, my recommendation for any future Escape owner is to research everything! Make your new Escape truly functional and your own.
