With e-bikes you really get what you pay for. The inexpensive models often have cheap motors and a battery that is only about half as powerful as the premium brands. Propella was rated 60 out of 100...

Hi, did you buy one? If so which one, 29, 33 or 39 inch? With the lock & latch on the front side, does it interfere with the propane cover.

Yes that is the one. I did some checking beforehand and the reason for the disclaimer is to release the bike rack manufacture from liability. Most find it impossible to certify their rack for all the...

bike rack

I bought a Thule T2 classic to carry 2 e-bikes. Expensive but strong enough for the heavier bikes. It is the easiest bike carrier to load that I have ever used. Bought from REI so got the rebate at...

So noted on the escape site. I ordered mine in 2016 and seem to remember the AC outlet on the 19 hit my head. Might have been wearing my snow boots at the time. Still am glad for buying the 21 and...

option considerations

I haven't seen a post about whether a 19 or 21 is right for you. It did affect our pick and caused us to change our order from a 19 to the 21. I am 6 foot tall and the air conditioner in a 19 hits me...

Anti-theft solution

A MacGyver question for the guys who like to tinker. Could a wire be run from the battery to a motion sensor to the electric brakes that would cause them to lock up if a thief tried to steal the...

Soft start for AC

I'm thinking about getting a Honda generator for a trip this summer through the midwest. We will be dry camping for most of the trip. I have the standard AC unit on a 2016 E21. Will the Honda 2200...

WDH?

You may not need a WDH. Try towing the trailer first then decide. I tow a 21 with a 1/2 ton Tundra without a WDH and have never had a problem.

My best advise

Best advise I can give is buy a bigger trailer. You will probably find the 19 is too small for 4.

If the border is closed then Escape probably won't be able to deliver a non-essential trailer to the US anyway.

You won't need it. I tow a 21 with a 2008 Tundra DC, 4.6 liter. The truck is about as long as the trailer and almost twice as heavy. Never had any problems.
