No. It was on our short list, but they are/were new with few examples out there, and didn't have a bathroom.
We had talked with the owner briefly earlier on about having a tip out bed or something.
We ended up with an Escape 19. There isn't tons of trailers with the amenities and size we want with decent quality in the 40k CAD price range, and I don't have the time or really the skills to build anything.

Hey thanks for getting back to me. I am excited as I ordered a Trail Marker Up and Out with Wet Bath by Rollingstar MFG. I did have concerns as there does not seemed to be many folks out there who post about thier Trailer Markers. I don't think there are very many rigs with wet bath and on board tanks built yet. What sold me is they are not mass produced and if you go to Rollingstar MFG website it will blow you away the rigs they make for fire departments, utility companies, FBI and many different kind of construction companies. The amount of aluminum welding that runs the that shop is huge. I looked hard at an escape 19 but that two year wait was the deal killer. But for the cost and build nothing compares un the fiberglass lane. Good luck sure. My first trip will be up to Baniff.

I was looking for a stand up rig. Boreas is coming out with one oes 12. It's is a sweet rig but I am weary of canvas pop ups. Then they went with the $7,000 cruise master air ride. That pushed thier 2023 base cost at 75k. To much for me

Seems like there is more content on thier trailers these days on the website. My guess is they have a certain amount of Trail Markers that they want to work into thier very busy schedule and they just sell them selves so they do not worry about a huge social media presence. This kind of appeals to me in a off grid backcountry up state NY rustic vibe. Just like the trailers ?

Fair,. But when people from another country and thousands of miles away want to see more pictures and get more information, it's less than ideal. The last time I checked the website was quite a while ago, but it was mostly the same few trailers. I think there were maybe 3 videos on their YouTube page.
Again I guess if rolling star is super busy with the bread and butter and doesn't have capacity to scale up, it would make sense not to Stoke demand of the trailmarker.

The Escape 23, when it comes out, will have my attention. I'm 6'5" and will be needing a full-time trailer in a few years. The other Escapes are a little short/cramped.
