I would like to see an Escape 5

We are in central Virginia (near Charlottesville) and would like to see an Escape 5 somewhere within a reasonable travel distance.

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Dick and Joanne,

I bet you will fall in love with Escape once seeing one in person!! I fell for Escape even without seeing one in person, and ordered one last August. I love the folks, very nice to deal with. And you can get all sorts of custom mods! My little Cafe Egg (17'B) is to the fullest of my taste:

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Charlottesville? Charlottesville? Yes, I think I've heard of that town. Isn't there a school (college) somewhere around there??
Of course, if you're a "Hoo" (for those outside of VA, that's Wahoo, as in the University of VA), to come to Blacksburg (site of the "other" University in Virginia), is a tough call : - )
Nah, even if you are a "Hoo", HokieEscape would love for you to check her out! And we'll not give you too much grief : - )
Love to see you in the 'burg Dick and Joann

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Hi: HokieEscape...Gee Dan; If there is some sort of tension goin' on between the "Hokies" and the "Wahoos" maybe we shouldn't figure on being in Gatewood round the 26th of Apr. with "Our Escape Hatch". Alf

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

I spent 5 short years in Blacksburg in the 60's. I started the last year the Corps was mandatory. I understand there is another school somewhere near here; and my son claims he went there but I am not entirely convinced (Oh wait a minute--I got the bills to prove it.)
Looking forward to seeing your "baby".
Dick

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Shirley and I are going to be in Illinois and Indiana for about 3 weeks starting June 1st and wonder if anyone in those areas has an Escape 5th wheel that we might be able to look at. We'll be driving from Denver, and back, pulling our Casita 17, so might even be able to see someone's along the way.

We have not seen one "in person" and would love to do so. A reply here, or a PM would work fine.

Thanks,

Keith and Shirley

Hi Keith and Shirley,
Hokie will be in Evansville, IN, the second week in October if nothing comes up before.

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Thanks you guys, Alf, we actually have reservations at the Shipshewana South campground for June 7,8, 9 but have to leave for Pontiac, Illinois to attend my Blacksmith Event on June 11,12,13. Otherwise we would love to join you all.

And, we won't be back in Indiana in October.

So, I guess this trip won't work.

Thanks to all of you, I guess you'll all just have to come out to Colorado some time.

Regards,

Hi: anvilmanco...Darn!!! So close yet so far away. We tried. Call Escape and ask Tammy if there's one closer to you. Alf

Re: I would like to see an Escape 5

Hey, Alf, you may have seen this already, but Shirley and I saw Dayna's rig today up in Grand Lake area. Tammy put us together and what a cool trailer, great people and we are hooked. Now all I have to do is figure out what TV to buy. Then, figure out how and when to order a 5.0 trailer. I really think this is the ultimate for us.

Later, I gotta go to bed now.

Hi: anvilmanco... One look is all it takes!!! We are getting ready to retire and downsize to 1 vehicle from 3. It has to have a back seat and Mary Anne says there has to be enough room for a baby's car seat for our 1st. grand!!! I'm looking at a Nissan Frontier 4dr. crew cab V6 long box. Looks to me to be a good match for the 5.0. Many on this forum have them and love 'em.
IMHO you will be building the best fiberglass trailer on the market...and I'm not biased. Alf
