For not much more money, our Ezy-Awning will do the same plus more. Its
biggest advantage is that it's roughly gym-bag-sized when packed down,
so you can store it under your seat, whereas the Easy-Up style awnings
are big and heavy. At $119 it will attach to the side of your Vanagon,
but with the optional suction cups it will also attach to the rear if
you want to work on your engine etc.  Our first shipment sold out almost
instantly, but I have more coming in roughly a week.
