Wanted - Escape 17B, 19, or 21 with bunks

Hi,
We are a family of four, looking for our first trailer. Escape is my top pic and seems like it would be great for us. If you have one for sale or know of one for sale, we are in the Pacific North West. We want one with a bathroom and ability to sleep 4. Thanks!

Yeah, two choices. Cot and gaucho. Depends on size of trailer which (if any) is available during the build.

The 17B has a gaucho/bunk bed option. I leave mine as bunks all the time. Great storage on top for my toys and books while parked and a bed for the dogs on the bottom.

Harvest should be aware there is not cot option in a 21C. I do believe it is available in the 21NE but they are too new of a model to be found used.

I LOVE this. Thanks for sharing the picture. We are looking at a 17B that doesn't have the bunk bed option. And since they seem nearly impossible to get, I am thinking of doing something DIY.

I didn't realize the terminology - newbie here. Yes the gaucho is what I meant.

It would be helpful to know how old the kids are ( assuming we are talking kids ) and their gender.

If they are 12 and 14, they won't want to sleep in the same "room" as you anyway. If a boy and a girl, they will want their own individual tent, and a friend.
