Escape 23

[Effie]

I agree that the L shape kitchen counter are not very user friendly. Also, you can't use the corner with the "lazy Susan" in there.

Found this 23' trailer on Northern Lite's website, introducing in 2020.....this maybe the new 23' Escape? https://www.northern-lite.com/traile...-Page-0408.pdf

Using the standard Fiberglass trailer measurements, that is a 27' trailer, quite a bit bigger than the planned Escape 23's...

No it's not. This is a trailer that Northern Lite is producing. It will be high end 25' ish and very different to an Escape, also ONLY available through dealers. It will be a nice trailer, but not an Escape. Our E23 is almost ready to go to the mold manufacturer., we are still trying to figure out a way to incorporate both door options. We plan to release more info next week.

Wow, 27'6" long and 8'4" wide. Jim, you haven't owned a Northern Light yet!

[cpaharley2008]

Good to know Karl, I had a trailer showing earlier this week and the prospective owner asked me about the Northern Lite 23 being the Escape's sister company and possibly the new unit.

Jim: The idea that this would be the new Escape 23 was debunked in this earlier thread. The E23 is a new, unique mold. Besides this NL trailer has a 23' shell but to achieve that it is 27.5' long overall. Escape's model names of bumper pull trailers corresponds to overall length (hitch to bumper), not shell length.

I gave them a call and the pricing will be between 60 and 70K. There will be very few options

Yes, and I even posted there back in April, but everything from then has been forgotten, like my signature, my life exists as only with 3 days.

[cpaharley2008]

I even posted the same thing here twice.......eek I need a vacation

Heard today from ETI that the new 23 will be base priced around $40k usd

Back when Escape announced that they would be coming out with an Escape 23 , my wife and I discussed maybe upgrading .
Now under the realities of Covid 19 and the decimation of our 401 K our interest has wained
Our 21 has weathered its current hiatus rather well and after applying a couple coats of wax our Escape looks almost new .
By the time thing return to normal , I have a feeling I will be too old to care

We love the concept of the 23, but for us it’s too much trailer. We bought our 19 in 2015 for our FT with a base retirement trailer which starts next summer. It is enough to maintain and tow the 19, its an excellent trailer and is still like new, so the plan will move forward with our 19.
The 23 will do very well for ETI and look forward to seeing it in the wild, but for the foreseeable future we’re 19ers.

on the northern Lite I believe the 60-70K is a U.S price. These are high end trailers and true 4 season . They will be sold threw the current U.S. dealers

I'm sticking with my plan for a 21NE.

Ouch. So that means it will start around $53k CA? Or is there some kind of "discount" since it is built in Canada?
