He always slept on the dinette in our last 2 RV's and of course we make most of our life decisions based on the needs of our dogs.

The other interesting thing in these photos is that ETI installed a power jack even though we didn't ask for one.
Of course, the dog takes precedence. Good for you.

Pretty funny they installed a power jack.

Always love to see the changes people come up with to make them their own. They look great.

Seeing new trailers hatch is always exciting, but even more so when it is yours.

The roads are great right now. I will be posting a couple photos later.

I sure would have, but double tow is not allowed in BC.

The wait to start construction can seem awfully long, working on the build sheet helps pass the time. Then boom first pictures come along with big smiles on your faces. Last pictures come and the planning starts on how to use the trailer when you have it.

When you finally go to Chilliwack (or the trailer comes to you) and the pride of ownership is what I see in all the other posts in this forum. Can't wait to go and get mine.

Doesn't surprise me that ....with the extra bed width in the new 17 they would be very appealing to anyone wanting a smaller model with everything .



Thanks, gabeck - are you saying it's a "girly" trailer?
Not at all , no fluff just very attractive !

That permanent bed in your 17 looks awesome! Enjoy the sounds of nature when you get her

Thanks, everyone! I know my vibrant colours aren't for everyone, but I like colour and cheery! Already ordered samples of Smart Tiles - really like the backsplash idea...

Woohoo! Another convert! Can't wait to see what you decide will go with the green countertop.

Don't forget you can switch out those ugly tan screw covers with other colors! Get some samples of those as they look different from what they show on their site (least they did on my monitor). Also, don't forget the rest of the trailer. You could do different colors in each "room" like I did or go for the same color throughout. They didn't really have one that I would call purple, so I wasn't able to match my fabric. But, you have lots of colors to choose from.

Thanks, Negtic4!

Laura, I resisted on the upholstery fabric, but there's a good chance there will be some dogs or paw prints somewhere... and possibly mountains...

Well, I was kind of wondering why I hadn't seen any of that. Wait, you don't have the trailer yet. That's why! You're still busy figuring out pillow fabric and having fun with that.

Do like I did. Make a whole bunch so you can switch them around from time to time.

We finally picked up our completed trailer from ETI last Tuesday, just a short (1 hour) ride home. The orientation team were terrific. Unfortunately Our trailer is now home sheltering from an unusual (for Vancouver) snowfall; we normally have liquid sunshine only at this time of year.
