It also includes a 4-page article on the 5.0TA.

Yes - I looked at the subscription site but it doesn't show the current cover. Latest one is last month's. Is it the same pic used in the ad?

What I want to know is who does Alf know at Trailer Life? He has been on the cover as well as inside at least twice that I'm aware of. So Alf, how much beer did you promise?

The cover picture and the key picture in the 4-page article are new to me - not from the ETI website or the monthly add. The photos in the article are credited to Norman's Photographic. The article was written by the current publisher of Trailer Life, Bob Livingston, who also wrote his monthly column titled: "Smaller Trailers Don't Require Sacrifice," and mentioned jumping at the chance to visit the plant in Chilliwack. Reace and Tammy are mentioned in the column. Kudos to ETI for Bob Livingston doesn't always write the magazine's trailer reviews, and quite often Trailer Life manages to have manufacturers drop a trailer for review at their headquarters in Ventura, CA. In addition the article is immediately followed by a six-page article on buying factory direct. Tammy is quoted is this article also, and there is a composite exterior/interior picture of the 5.0 TA and 21.

Alf should rename his trailer "the Kardashian".

Norman's Photographic is a commercial photographer in Chilliwack but most of the work I've seen done by him is portraits.

I just checked out the link provided and you can sign up for a trial issue of Trailer Life with the option of paying or cancelling later. I like to pay for subscriptions by check because once they have your credit card number it becomes very hard to dump them if you don't like the product or service. I've been wanting to take this magazine but had forgotten about it. Thanks for reminding me Donna. Loren

I don't know what their prices are on their website (haven't checked it out that way), but in the July issue I got at Barnes & Noble, there's some subscription cards inside that list $17.97 for one year or $29.97 for two years.

I prefer to pay by check for subscriptions as well.

Reace and Tammy should get the rights to post that article on the ETI website. It'd be a great marketing piece (not that they need any help in that department right now).

Hi: All... Just to re hash Alf's involvement with Trailer Life... All I did was send Tammy the picture for this months page of the Escape 2015 calendar. She got in touch and asked to use it in a promo ad. The rest is "Her story". Alf
