Good video , Glad you showed how you mounted it to your rack on your roof . Thanks again for sharing .

I always say, “If it works for ya, and you’ll be happy! You good!”😅

What??!!! Only $119.90 ?!! My side awning is hand made (I made it), and probably I spent preatty much the same on building the sucker !!! And I had the trouble!!! Damn !!! That's a bargain !!! Well done. Even if needs some work to make more rough, It´s worth everyday !! Tarp and alluminum, what can go wrong? LOL !! Cool video !! Thank's for sharing, really !!

LOL! Yeah, tell your friends! That's cool you made your own though! The other day I looked and this eBay seller had the tan version of mine discounted to $92 US Dollars!! I enjoy a good deal and always glad to help others do the same. In reality, these awnings should only cost about $100, not $280 like some companies ask. The market for overland gear has become very inflated. It's crazy that items like rooftop tents cost $1,500+ USD when they should only cost about $700. The demand for this stuff is so crazy high right now, companies can ask whatever they want and still sell out of stock. It makes sense, it's really cool stuff! Eventually, I hope to get a rooftop tent but it's currently not in the budget with a child on the way. Cheers!

Great video. I just ordered one yesterday, the 6.6' size. They have been reduced in price down to $102.99 for this size. I can't wait to install it on my teardrop trailer.

I mean you going to get one of those for like 50 bucks. and they come in a metal enclosure. you pull the thing out and then you put grommets at the end the part where the handle is and then you can just buy some holes and so when you mount it you just pull it out you put the poles in you put some cables and you're done

Drilling holes into the top support bar was not a good idea. If you ever have to use it to support a rooftop tent or cargo container, you will have to but new support bars because drilling holes in it has weakened it tremendously!

Do you think it would keep you dry during rain? Do you think it would rip easy?

@NarrowRoadAdventures

6 жыл бұрын

The rainfly material is made of a woven fabric material that is moisture wicking and has a waterproof layer on the bottom side. It is heavier duty than a typical tent rainfly and would expect it to be pretty durable and help prevent ripping. Due to the waterproofing I of the material I expect it to continue to keep rain out. I plan to coat the topside with a waterproofing spray (like Campdry) just for good measure but probably not necessary. Like all awnings, in rain you will want to lower one corner a bit to help with water run off so it doesn't pool in the middle. Hope this helps!

That’s a good question, Brian. We have both depending on what trip we do and both suite different people’s needs. Easy ups work well for someone who like to camp the same spot all weekend. However, most times for us and those who are into “overlanding” will travel and stay different places each night. Easy ups take 5 times longer to setup and pack away. That might not be a big deal for a couple days but after a couple weeks of taking hours to setup and tear down each day, it gets wearing. A traveling overlander is constantly looking for time saving convinces.

Yes with the bracket facing up there's a possibility of ripping the awning when you put it up on the roof to put the framing rods away.

your car needs a roof rack cargo

Great video champ.,,,,,,,,,,,One question I need to ask though re the awning - why the hell does it have buckle clips on the outside of the bag ? that makes no sense at all.... If anything they should be on the inside holding it all nice and tight, not on the outside. Good video though mate

4 Wheeling In NSW I agree. I’m glad it has the hook & loop (AKA Velcro) straps on the inside but yes the buckle on the outside doesn’t make much sense other than it helps keep the bag from flapping in the wind just a bit. I thought about just cutting the straps off but ultimately decided just to keep them on. Thanks for watching, mate. Happy trails to ya.
