to: nearby Escape trailer owners

My wife and I are on the verge of ordering a new Escape trailer -- probably a 19- or 21-foot model.

But we've never seen an Escape trailer up close! So we're hesitating a bit, and we hope an owner or two who lives not too far from our home in San Jose, CA will let us see theirs!

So if you're willing to show us "your pride and joy," please email me directly, at "dbfiddleshop@gmail.com," so we can find a mutually convenient date and time.

Thanks SO MUCH!

Dave Barton

Hi Dave - if you contact Escape Trailer Industries they will hook you up with the nearest owners.

Good Luck - we love ours!

I am sorry to say, but we are at capacity, and can no longer accept any more Dave's at this site.

J/K of course, and welcome aboard.

I bought my 19 without ever seeing one, and have zero regrets. Still does not hurt though, especially to decide on a model that best suits your needs. You could also look on this map to see of trailers near you.

Exactly the skit I was thinking about when I typed.

Probably the only English name more common than Jim. :

The name curiosity I find most interesting is the number of serial killers and major criminal types with the middle name "Earl".
James Earl Ray being one.

The Dixie Chicks put an end to that when they said Earl had to die...

Speaking of maps, when will the Owners Map tab at the top of the forum site be fixed?

Hello Dave,

My wife and I will come home with our new Escape 21 in early June. We live in West San Jose near Santana Row. If you are still waiting to see an Escape at that time, let me know and maybe we can arrange that.

Cheers!
Fletch

We'll be bringing home our 2012 Escape 19 at the end of June, if you're still interested at that time and want to visit Morro Bay.

We are down in Escondido and if you want a nice trip south we are available anytime to show our 19...BTW, we absolutely love to camp at Morro Bay with several places to choose from...this picture of the rock was taken a few months ago...

Hi Dave - We'll be picking up our 19' on March 26th and heading home right after that. I'll send you an email and, if you want to drive over to Felton, you're more than welcome to come visit.

Best wishes, enjoy your new Escape!
