Any 21 ft. owners near Santa Fe NM?
We're seriously considering selling our 17 ft Casita and purchasing an Escape. Is there anybody with a newer 21 ft. trailer in Northern N.M. who would let the wife and I check their's out? Thanks, Mike

A quick call to Escape and they will set you up with someone in your area that is willing to show you their trailer.

There's at least two in Albuquerque, and one of them is mine. If you want to make the trip down let me know.

Mpresco, thanks for the response. We have never been inside an Escape. Is there a chance we could see it either this Sunday or Wednesday? My wife is off those days. If not, tell me what days work for you.

But only senior members can send URLs, so no email addresses unless you enter it as text: MyEmail at gmail dot com.
PMs with URLs won't be delivered unless you are a 'trusted' member. Sorry, but that's the way the software works to prevent spamming.

We have the other 21 in Albuquerque that Mike referred to. As it happens, we quite close to him as well. You are welcome to see our trailer as well if you wish or if you just want a different perspective. I'll send a PM with details. We're retired, so either Sunday or Wednesday is fine with us.

Update
After viewing Mpesco's 21, we have taken the plunge. Thank you Mike, and also thanks to StanLewis and Chama. Gave Escape our deposit and now comes the hard part. Selecting our options. Thankfully, we have until April 4 to complete. Anybody want to downsize to a 17ft. Casita? We know of one for sale. What sold us on the 21 ft. Escape was the floorpan that allowed better access to the bed. Obviously there are other features that were superior to the Casita. But, we will never badmouth our Casita, we still love it.

Casita builds a nice trailer. I once thought a 17' FD was in my future. I spent a LOT of time inside Dave&Kathies 2006 FD they bought new. NOW I spend a lot of time inside their 21' Escape
Congratulations!

SFmiguel--
Congrats on your decision!
I'm in Santa Fe, too, and have an Escape 19 on order (completion next month, but I'm not going to pick it up until after school is out in May). So I managed to navigate the options/built sheet process back in November.
It looks like New Mexico is getting well populated with Escapes. If you'd like to talk about the whole ordering rigamarole or get together for coffee, PM me.
Again, congrats!
