That's my take on this too. I have no intention getting another Escape or replace my current one....

Odd location, Lake Havasu City...this location in the summer just about sets the North American high temp. We have driven through here in May at 118°F. Close to Quartzite for the big snowbird crowds, but no one with sense stopping here in the winter.

We stopped in mid January and the place was just hopping. Nice area, but way too heavy on tourists for the most part.

According to Facebook a 17 is getting delivered to Arizona with a ETI truck in front.
(Very commercially looking in my eyes)
My guess: it’s the one

I'll post it. Looks like a demo unit to showcase the build quality, etc.

Lake Havasu is the location of Lead Dog Motorsports.
Look at this page of their site to see their Partners.
Mostly companies with a significant Canadian presence.
I suspect there is currently a relationship of some sort with the new owners of ETI.
That is why Lake Havasu was chosen as the first US site.
Work out the kinks then expand from there.

Cause I was so dumb not to save the pic from fb, it took me awhile to get it back.
But thank you for the help Donna. You sure are always on the alert

If that's the new color scheme I hate it.

I would bet it is. Otherwise why paint gelcoat unless needed, or for a few, wanted.

They say it is a wrap. Very eye catching to attract sales.

That did make more sense than paint.

They say human nature is to resist change and boy is that evident here. Nothing stays the same; in business you are either moving forward or backwards.
The RV business is cyclical like others and right now orders are softening across the industry. This sounds like a smart move to build another distribution channel.
