Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Eric, you're actually a godsend. Not way too much info at all. You can probably tell we're pretty meticulous on this end, and we both like to have an actual understanding of things as opposed to just...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Yeah, one of the nice things about the Escape is that the electric brakes come standard ... but I hear you about the brake issue. Sure wish there was someone out there with our (possible) setup who...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Ok, let me throw one more wrinkle in here ...

Given all I've said about our car ... do any of you think we could successfully pull a 17A with a equalizer hitch?

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Eric, I'll owe you a coffee or beer sometime :)

And everyone else ... we spoke at length with Reace and Tammy today. Reace is recommending a class 3 hitch with the stabilizer. If we go ahead and...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Eric,

First, thanks for bringing me here! If we end up with an Escape you deserve alot of the credit for getting us started.

Second, I believe that the 3.0L (or something along those lines)...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Jim, yeah, I know -- my husband and I are the types that buy something we love and stick with it until it's time for the graveyard (witness our 1989 Honda Civic, "Berry," forever faithful chariot,...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Oh, we're looking at Plan A in the 15' btw ... though there has been some discussion of adding the outdoor shower option. That's optional though if the added weight would drag us down. We really...

Re: Subaru Outback and Escape 15

Reace,

Glad to "meet" the Man, Myth, and Legend behind the beloved Escape!

I thought 140 on the tongue weight seemed too good to be true :)

Subaru Outback and Escape 15
