Hey guys,Escape gave me two contacts to use to view a 5.0 in Winnipeg. Feels awkward to call someone and ask to go see their machine. So this is a shout out. Anyone want to show me theirs close to Winnipeg Canada?

We expect calls or emails as we have told them they are welcome to give our info to people who want to see the trailers.
Up in your area their probably are more but Escapes are rare here.

The contacts you were given are people who have agreed to show their unit. If you purchase a trailer, they will receive a small cheque ( but large enough for the effort ). Call them.

Don't feel awkward, just call. I showed my 19 twice in the last two weeks. Those who allow Escape to use them as a reference don't mind showing their unit at all.

We enjoy showing our 2017 21' because we always make new camping friends in the process. In just a few weeks, we'll be camped near a couple at the Green Eggs & Ham Rally that came to tour ours before ordering theirs. So now we'll get to visit again and tour their brand new 21' at the rally!

I’ve shown my Escape many times and enjoy the experience each time. I normally give a copy of my build sheet (with prices removed) so the potential buyer has an idea what he/she can do to make theirs unique. Many come with tape measure, camera and lots of questions. Enjoy the visit!

Wi did this in California and the owners were fantastic! Don't be shy. They expect a call. Being able to see and Escape in person convinced me to buy.

We show the Escape on a regular basis. I like to pull it out on the driveway but have also shown it inside the building while it's raining. It seems to me that the most often noted things are the aisle height and at our insistence, the way the mattress feels. Things that people did not realize would be most usable are the front storage box, side hatches and under bed storage. To be sexist about it, women appreciate the possibilities of interior decorating, men notice the fit and finish and realize there's really nothing that needs done before going camping when you keep saying " that's factory".

I had a lovely visit with Hugh and Denise yesterday as I made my way through southern Arizona. They were happy to show their 19 and as usual, I got a couple new ideas. My 17a should be ready soon. Newest pics in It's Friday.
