I once talked to a fellow Westfalia owner who recommended an awning from Harbor Freight. The trick, apparently, is to get the one with metal or alloy hardware and hinges. Upon my inspection I found it very sturdy and well made. It seemed to have held up well for several seasons of camping. Chris.

They are heavy, bulky and barely fit in the back of the Vanagon. They seen to self destruct in a heavy rain which is when you most need them. Though I am ready to buy a third one shortly, like this: http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/50217?feat=2-SR0 I was also looking at this one: http://www.llbean.com/llb/shop/68617?feat=2-SR0 . Has anybody had any experience with that one? It looks like it might pack better in the back of the van, or even on the luggage rack, and may withstand the heavy rain better. Any comments? > > Thanks > Bryan |
