Would like to see a 17' and 19' Vancouver, BC

Hi, I live in Vancouver, BC, near the PNE. I'm considering buying a 17' or 19' Escape, but right now it's a little challenging to get out to Chilliwack to check them out.

Is anyone willing to let me come look at their trailers? Hopefully that is a reasonable request to make?

Thanks! James

Hi Sandra L, thanks very much for taking time to reply. Kim has generously provided me with 4 contacts - 2 were out of service, 2 were not interested in showing me. I don't want to keep asking her for contacts, so I thought I would try posting here. Thanks again. j

We have a 2007 17B and live in Port Moody at the end of the Barnet Highway. We just got back from a camping trip so it's a bit messy right now, but we don't mind showing off our baby

Wow, thanks for all the great replies! I really appreciate your willingness to help me out.

This afternoon I actually convinced my wife to make the trip out to the factory on her day off, Saturday.

But, a heartfelt thanks to making your trailers available to me!

Regards, James

Hi Paul, thanks very much for your awesome response! Congrats on the 19'. For some unknown reason I was able to talk my wife into going to the factory this weekend. So, luckily, I'm going to go there and see all models side by side, the construction process, etc.. I'm pretty stoked.

Thanks very much for the kind offer. James

Careful James, it's liable to be like going to pick out a shelter dog... you'll want to bring them ALL home.

Hi Allan,

Thank you very, very much for your kind offer. Surprisingly, I was able to talk my wife into spending her only day off, Saturday, driving out to Chilliwack to visit the factory. I'm looking forward to seeing all models side by side in various stages of completion.

To you, and perhaps to all the other kind members who invited me to visit their Escapes, maybe I can take you up on your awesome offers in the future should the situation arise.

Thanks again. James.
