Hi Jim,

I have not done the permanent awning yet but came very close a couple years ago. 

I liked the ARB awning for price, mounting, and it seemed of nice quality.  They seem to go on sale around Black Friday and GW has brackets that work. 

I think I found it at a site called Autoanything. 

I almost think I’ve seen them sold at GW as well.

Keep us posted on your search and decision making.

I’m still a fan of the Bus depot 10 foot awning.  But, it might be considered a two person job to put up. I do it alone with no real difficulty, and I imagine that task is easier when you can see!
But, not really something I’d want to use to just have lunch quickly.  It is really for a day or so.
I do sometimes have awning envy for those with the pull outs.
