Subject:Re: fiamma awning 10 ft or 11-8 ft

I've got the 10 footer on my van and it weighs a tone. It's was also
putting some stress on the rain gutters until I made some supports on
back. I'd check the weight of the two of them.

Hi volks

I am looking for an awning and wondering if any of you
guys are using the 11-8 ft long fiamma awning. I
mesured the side of the van and the 10 ft one looks
good. But just wondering having that little extra
inches would be benefical. The awning would extend a
couple inches further on each side.

The parts person suggested for me to buy the brand
name Horizon instead of Fiamma. He told me it was
built by fiamma but cheaper, like 300$ cheaper. Is it
worth it?

Thanks a lot for your input!
