Sitting on the fence?

Anyone out there sitting on the fence deciding if they should place a trailer order or not ...or wait for a used one to come up available to buy?

Well, get off the fence and just do it!!! I cannot tell you how exciting it is to have a new trailer to call all your own!! My Escape is so awesome...having owned a few older trailers in the past I can tell you ...the BRAND NEW SMELL alone is worth it!!! I've never had a trailer smell as awesome as my 17B. My trailer is perfect in every way...I was able to customize it the way I want to, even if you do not customize it, it comes totally ready to go. Having the option (I did) to customize it makes it that much more personal and MINE!!! I am such a happy camper I get giddy thinking about it! Thank-you Reace and Tammy for such a great product!!...and it's made in Canada!!

So, just do it, you will not regret your decision at all!!!

Cheers,
Nadia

Re: Sitting on the fence?

I take it from the tone of your post that you seem satisfied with both the product and the service at Escape.

Anything that you would have added as an option in hindsight?

Nadia, Nadia. Do you have a rope? Throw it down, then I can help bring you back down from where you be floating.

Nice feeling, eh?

Ha, Ha, Jim you are too funny...put your hands up the rope is falling...catch it in a little while....I don't want to come down just yet! Yes, it is a nice feeling.

shanngord: the only thing I saw at the plant that I would have added to my Trailer is the aluminum wheels...I like "bling" and the aluminum wheels added just the right amount of bling for me...plus it would have matched the wheels on my truck. I did not get them because Reace did not have the 15" ones in stock when I was there to pick up my trailer. I may eventually get after market aluminum wheels to add to my trailer later on. The standard white ones does look good too, they match the trailer quite nicley. I am very satisfied with the product, the service and the company.

Hi: nadia... I was in one of my local RV stores and they had a set of 15" chromed dressup rings. They make the white wheels look much better. You can also get the center hub covers in chrome. Lots less than full wheels. Alf

Re: Sitting on the fence?

Hi: nadia...Some people seem quite comfortable sitting on the fence!!!
When the chance to own "Our Escape Hatch" came along I had literally minutes to decide. Good thing I'm a shoot first...ask later type.
Dan I'm really excited about the prospect of hooking up the new tug...but then I want to disappear with our rig, at the same time!!! Spring/summer can't come soon enough for me. Alf

Re: Sitting on the fence?

Our trailer is a 2010, we were at this years RV show in Chilliwack.
I did not see any thing, that would make me want to change.
Fun in the looking, but for us I don't think we will beat the Escape 19.

Nadia Majoross

Our Escape 19 "Yukon Escape" was completed, on March 15th and is waiting for us to go outside to pick it up. Tammy is holding it for us until then.
We will be outside about the first week of April, not to sure yet we are on Yukon Time.

Perhaps we will see you on the Island, but I have been hearing horror stoies about the cost of a ride on the ferries. So much for being an extension of Canadas highway system.
