You have to buy Carefree from RV dealers, so I doubt there is much price negotiation. But the price of the Sidewinder II which I have is pretty good. $341 for the 10' plus $170 for the Vanagon brackets. Not much more than I paid for mine over ten years ago. They say it is "two people" to unroll and set up, but I do it myself, although it is getting harder with age.... (My age, not the awning.) It has little plastic and has held up great for all these years, but I may have to look for a roll-out when I can't manage this one alone. Or, get my wife to retire and go with me to help with the awning! Richard A Jones Boulder, Colorado |
