    Best Shower mat

    Bath mat We purchased this for our 21. It fits the floor perfectly! Since it’s flexible, it can also be cut to fit other floor sizes...

    Escape sighting?

    We spotted another 21’ at Two Medicine Campground in Glacier National Park yesterday. We’ve been traveling for the past 8 days from Florida, without seeing any other Escapes, until this one. Had a brief chat with the couple at the campsite, found out it was a 2022, shared a few mutual tails of...

    Texas to San Diego

    We’ll keep that in mind. We’ve driven IH 10 before, with looonnngggg stretches of emptiness and lack of gas stations. One has to plan accordingly! My son and his family were caught in a blizzard along that desolate route a few years back. Hway 10 actually had a long line of cars in a...

    Texas to San Diego

    Thank you for all of the suggestions. Now, I’ll sit down with a map, and plan a route. It helps to have some of the sites y’all recommended to focus upon. Has anyone stayed at campgrounds along these routes?

    Texas to San Diego

    We’re looking for good, safe routes with camping from central Texas to San Diego. Would like to avoid the southern border areas (parts of IH 10), El Paso/Juarez area, and Baja CA. Any suggestions? Unique sites to see? TIA!

    Escape sighting?

    Anacortes WA Just saw an Escape on route 20, Eastbound, in Anacortes, WA at 2:58 pm today. Since we were on the roundabout, I couldn’t tell if it was a 19 or 21’. It’s near the Pioneer RV campground where we are camping. It was just exciting to see, as we have seen countless Casitas, a...

    Electric Outlets not working

    Hi! Our 120 electric outlets on the passenger side are not working. We have a 2020 21 C. DH already replaced the ground fault outlet outside, to no avail. (recommended by Escape.) Display panel doesn’t show any error codes. The lights and other outlets are fine. What should we check next...

    I think I just got lucky - Price Increase

    No. Read my post again…. It’s self explanatory.

    I think I just got lucky - Price Increase

    The market As many have commented, who really knows if the price increases are justified, and who ultimately benefits as far as profits or raises? Comparing this to the crazy increases in real estate prices, I’m incredulous that people are paying the high prices for houses. We were looking at...

    Get ready for $4+ gas prices..

    Gas prices Parts of SW FL are already between $3.49 and $3.99. We wouldn’t be surprised if it’s upwards of $5 a gallon for the trek home.

    Sights in Iowa

    Sights to see in Iowa I was hoping the Iowa Dave would post some of his favorites. Are there any good places you’d recommend to visit, Dave? The eastern part of the state is so close to us, too, even for a day or weekend excursion. Sometimes, it’s the little places, not widely advertised...

    Sights in Iowa

    Back in September, we were fortunate to find the Dan Nagle Pioneer Village near Davenport, Iowa, while heading back home from a trip. https://www.scottcountyiowa.gov/conservation/pioneer-village It consists of around 20 structures, some brought in from nearby areas, to re-create the late 1800s...

    tips on using scoop method for backing into sites

    Longer trailer Good advice. That’s just what I told DH. More practice in a parking lot. There’s an excellent long video giving pointers about all aspects of backing into a site. In going through that, I discovered that we are not adequately “chasing “ the trailer once we are part way into...

    tips on using scoop method for backing into sites

    Backing up I am really enjoying this thread and the tips. Like the OP, I found that “scoop method” video a couple years ago, and had success with our 19’. Being a visual person, and following the method in the video, I backed up the 19’ with ease. However for some reason, the 21’ has given us...

    Cleaning items and systems

    Jon, Did you have a rug cut to size? What about those interlocking foam or rubber pads? We thought about that to cover the floor as well. But I still want to find out if there’s an interchangeable broom/ mop/swiffer contraption for small RVs. I saw one once, but can’t locate it now.
