Portable solar idea

I've been a Slim Potatohead fan for a couple of years now. Here is his good idea for a portable solar panel storage and use.

I follow him as well. He truly thinks outside the box.

My brother told me about him. My brother is a potato head who wants a small trailer, smaller than what Escape builds but doesn't like the quality he sees.

There still is a market for a bare bones 13 and 15 foot Escape.

Doug2000, the Outback trailer that Slim has is still being built in Calgary. But your brother already knows that if he is a regular watcher, as Slim took his trailer to the factory there to have modifications done.

My guess is that Escape will look at how well the E23 is received (or not) to help determine if returning to smaller models makes sense to them.

Did either the 15 or 13 have a bathroom? It takes up so much room!
