Wherever you place it, you don't want it competing with other type or objects like reflectors or stop lights.
ETI placed mine above the rear window.

I'm hoping the name "Spirit of the Plains" will go across the trailer and under the rear window. We are planning to get the extra rear vertical lights too. There is such a wide difference in how high a driver sits in vehicles these days that you better cover your rear from top to bottom. Pun intended. Loren

Since I added a rear view camera up top, I put it at the bottom of the rear window:

You can name your trailer whatever you want. But if you call it Ten Forward, we're gonna have a problem I knew what I wanted to name my 5.0 long before I made the purchase.

Please, decide on a name that makes you happy.. that's what matters when you think about the trailer, truly

Escape Hatch and Escape Pod are popular across the forums and most aren't ETI builds!

Whatever you go with, it needs space. Any chance "Plains Spirit" works? Or some variation that keeps the name short?

I'm hoping to start a blog called "I Did It My Way" and name my trailer the same.

Naming your Escape

Had to make a quick run to town about an hour ago and noticed a new Sam Adams beer offering which, according to the label celebrated the coming of spring, which to us means getting out and camping. Point being the beer was named Escape Route, I thought that might be a good trailer name, so if you like it you are welcome to use it. Furthermore, I will lay in a modest store and bring some with me to Townsend. We'll also have a little liquid Iowa corn along and I ain't talkin cornhusker hand lotion.

We pick up our 5.0TA in August and have already named it. Very simple: "Our Escape"!I think I will have "Our" printed above "Escape" on the back of the 5.0TA.

Well, that would be 50% right: Wrong eye color but definitely "Ole"

I knew that -- was just being silly. Actually, was vaguely wondering if his estate could sue.
