Another new Vancouver Island 17B owner

We have just purchased very nice 2011 Escape 17B after spending the last 4 years dreaming about having one (while checking this forum regularly). And just spent our first night out down by the beach... and iiieee!... talk about 5 star camping! How did we manage to do without?!...

I bet you're at least as excited as we were when we got ours (almost exactly a year ago)! Congrats, and many happy camps and adventures.

There's getting to be a bunch of Escapee's on Vancouver Island, we can almost have our own rally.

Congratulations, and welcome. I'm sure you will have many enjoyable camping adventures with the 17B. I sure enjoy mine. Are you planning to attend the Osoyoos owners rally last week in May?

Congrats Steve, looks super nice. From the photo it looks like it also has the high lift axle?

May you have many wonderful trips to come.
