While the two tone does not look bad, it would not be for me either. I am also a fan of graphics, though a change to the old ones would be nice. I would probably like a lighter finish too, and full trailer. I think I will stick with white as this is what I have and likely my last trailer.

Red graphics on the white half, above the red half, would probably make the red one look more kosher. Add a red-and-white 1950s car with fins, and it would look even better. But yeah, as it stands in the photo it looks odd.

I see that Nucamp now offers fiberglass trailers...but wow...45 to 50k plus for such a tiny trailer. I put it here though since it does come in a couple of colors.

Do it with the red on top, or all red. Then market it as a mobile command post for Fire Agencies.

Interesting, cute; apparently an adaptation from the UK. No belly band; looks like it might be made in three molds, center and two sides.

Escape might also consider a single (not white) color instead of two colors.

How about the red and white option with red graphics on top and white graphics on the bottom?

To my eye the colour makes them reminiscent of old Bolers, not Escapes.

Looks like a country church in a state a little south and east of me. I wouldn’t have found it if they wouldn’t have had the sign along the road. The water got too low in the ribber so the stock tank was brought in

Looks awesome, two tone car paint is a popular personalization when available. The new Chevy Blazer and Equinox offer it. With cars, having colors available is a surprisingly difficult thing to do, which is why initially they just offer white and maybe black.

I’d take that any day over some stickers, elegant and gives style to what is otherwise just blank white.

My first thoughts on the red one. A red solo cup. Or my little Igloo cooler, came to mind…

I like the colors and new decals. Still a big fan of the all white, though. That would be my first choice.

Is there a difference on which colors would be easier to patch chips on.
I think it would be white and if so then I’ll stick with white. I like keeping a vehicle nice looking.

He has risen indeed!

At those prices, we would get white. The trailer is a tool that makes it easier for us to do things we enjoy. Changing the color would not make the tool work any better for us. However, there are, I’m sure, people who really like the idea, and might be just enough additional to get them into an Escape.

If I were to color an Escape, I would find a car/truck that had the color I liked and get the color code from it and use that for the pigment That way you would always have access to the correct paint color.
