I see the conventional water fillers, do you have a built-in tank?

That's how my Campster worked, too. But it had a fresh water tank. Does your just hook to city water?

We have a 2014 15a with built in water heater, sink, etc. I would be more than happy to take photos later this week of any of the stock Escape water system. That said, I don’t think it’s the most efficiently lay out for space and use. I’ve already upgraded the faucet and intend to change out the sink to a SS IKEA sink that also has a integrated drain board. I also don’t like the location of the water pump and hot water switches. They are located on the face of the cabinet, just below the countertop. I would have rather had them at eye level, on the face of the upper cabinet. The switches should have been a type that are lit when on and labeled.

OP: I'm 'just up the hill' from you in Carson City and although our 15A came with a sink it was so tiny I installed a larger SS sink, water heater, changed out the exterior shower, etc., etc. It wouldn't be difficult to install a sink in your 15A; surprised how different your 15A's interior photo looks than our 15A is; but they were all built to order so not surprised. A little more work to add a fresh water tank, pump, etc. PEX tubing is easy-peasy to work with if you have the basic crimper.
