Sorry people! I just got tired of a topic with close to 30 replies that implies that Escape makes 19 footers and 5.0 5th wheels only.
Although Glenn and RogerCH articulated replies that reminded readers of the benifits of the smaller sizes of Escape trailers, we were being lost in the roar.
As Glenn and RogerCH stated: two of the obvious benifits of the 17 and smaller trailers are the size of the tow vehicle and manueverabililty.
The other advantage is that there is only enough room for 2, maybe 3 in a pinch, so every relative or friend sleeping in a tent cannot move in on you when it rains outside (hence the outside shower as well).
As we like to camp in more remote Forest Service unimproved campsites, I heard (on an expedition-type forum) that tandem torsion-suspensions axels where prone to flex problems when on uneven ground: one of the other reasons we chose what we chose. Small also fits into a standard carport/garage.
Most of us have stated in previous posts perceived advantages, but what are your thoughts on small?
