i have 2 yrs 4 mths till retirement, love the
bigfoot, super interested in the new evergreen element (could purchase today with no financial strain), however if i wait 2 years can get one in low to mid 20's, and it appears to be one heck of a trailer. either way i could be happy with either i would think, might consider the new larger size
escape if used price were right. really like the european design of the evergreen element manufactured in indiana my home state and have somewhat of an in with the owners.
still open to other brands but a 25 to 28 foot is my max size cause i will be at high altitude 90 % of my traveling time 8 to 12000 feet, 21 to 25 ft would be more ideal with a lift kit and over sized tired and rims dual axles
who knows we will see, still got a bit of time to make the decision
take care appreciate all input, i am a former spec designer for ford and gm trucks back in my fleet leasing days 30 years ago
