It's happened!
Husband and I are officially owners of a new (to us) 2009 5.0! I never guessed it would have happened this fast from the moment I started to really keep a close watch on the ads (about 2 months or so), much less have one for sale so close to home (an hour away). Those who may have known Hokie Escape, they reached out to me from seeing my post stating I was looking and from that moment and not even a week later it's in our yard. I know he and his wife will miss it dearly but it's going to be in great hands! [emoji847][emoji16]

Great find! Congratulations! And it looks like you already have a great place to store it.

Thanks! Yes, I definitely believe in putting a roof over it while not in use! [emoji3]

Wow...talk about good karma! Welcome to the Escape Owners Club.

Congrats on picking up a great used trailer. I am sure Dan took great care of it. Lots of good fun ahead.
I did one of the first custom mods on Hokie Escape during a trip to Chilliwack in early 2009.

On a side note, that thread was significant in another way - it was Karen's very first post. Cool.

I hid the hole in my garage, maybe I could get it to Sharon & Danny somehow.
Kewl to see Karen's first post. We were all relative newbies then.
