Very nice! Much better than the last one. Good pix selection and summary of standard 'personalization' options

Add the bathroom size for each trailer in the specs. It's something that seems to be asked about frequently.

The three pics of the kitchen area in the 5.0 show an oven. Perhaps at least one with the standard stove?

Very nice! Lots of useful information.
One minor quibble, the graphics comparing floor-plans show the 5.0 to be about the same length as the 21NE and 21C when in fact the interior length is 2'5" longer. I realize that statistic is called out in the spec section, but the graphic can be deceiving if one does not realize they are not all the same scale.
Thanks!

The 19 description on page 2 (erroneously) says the bed is in the front and the dinette is in the rear. Also on page 7.

The 21c lists a "Full queen size bed" - oops, that should be a Full XL size bed.

Very nice, lots of information in an easy format to follow, but I do think a slightly larger text (on a 13 to 15 inch laptop screen) will be easier on the eyes, after all most of your audience are not teenagers any more.

Gotta second that comment on the page 10 graphic with all the trailers side-by-side. IMO it would be a lot more intuitively informative if the trailers were in proper L&W proportion relative to each other, even if at the expense of reducing the red top banner height.
Gold-plated would be to-proportion depiction of the front frame to the hitch and rear bumper ILO 'front' and 'rear' labels.
Hey, I just realized the "TA" has been dropped from the 5.0 name, site-wide!
.... maybe I've been snoozing
Will that carry-over to the on-trailer graphics?

I like the new catalog.
I support the request for additional measurements and the "true" scaling on the very useful floor plan comparison page.
Also useful would be the dimensions of the dinettes. My focus is the 5.0 and, for example, I would like to see the impact of the wrap-around dinette on the measurements of that area. I think putting in the U dinette would mean a lot of knee bumping, but hard to tell.
Overall width of the interior living space would also help with figuring things out.
Thanks!!

While I agree that side by side illustrations should be to scale I would caution folks that until you actually go into each of the models you do not truly have a feel for the spaces involved.
If it comes down to one model or the other I'd encourage prospective buyers to make an effort to view both models even if it means driving a ways to view them.

Nice catalog! Great pics. I would however, suggest they change the adjective 'maintenance-free' to 'low-maintenance' in their first sentence. No such thing as a 'maintenance-free' RV and the Escape manual includes a list of maintenance recommendations. Otherwise, nice summary of all the new options! -Bea

Measurement of counters and dinette

I would like there also be measurements of counter space between the stove and sink. Also the size of the dinette. If buying sight unseen, I think those are important. If grand parents are buying they want to know if there is room for one or two grand children to sleep.

Nice catalog Karl. One item of note is that on page 10 the graphic for the 19 is incorrect. As shown it is a shrunk down 21NE calling out a queen bed/ 6 person dinette in front. The 19 graphic on page 7 appears correct.

Thanks for all the comments everyone! Very good suggestions on all fronts. And very good eyes on catching a few mistakes! I'm busily adjusting the floor plan layouts page to make it more accurate. More detailed floor plans showing measurements of spaces, dinettes, benches etc. are in the works.

I gotta say the picture of the Jeep Gladiator and matching E19 pic is mighty fine looking....but I'm biased That should sell a few 19's for sure.
