Don,

I have one, as do our friends... and the awning is very nice, easily stores
under the rear seat, and sets up in less than 10 minutes.  Tear down in
about 5 minutes.

You do need a "clean" surface to set it up, as like a tent you have to lay
it out on the ground to insert the framework.

Clamps easily to the rain gutter and provides a nice shady entrance.

Subject: Awning questions

  Has anyone any experience with the Bus Depot's relativly inexpensive
awning?  I'm interested in something lighter and easier to store than my
EZups now that I am just traveling in my van.  I specifically wanted to ask
if during a real rain can you leave the slider open with the awning mounted
over it and not get a bunch of water running into the opening from the roof
or the awning.

  Thanks, Don Hanson
