Thread: Our 130 awning

Haven't got any good ones on the PC at the moment sorry, but heading away this weekend so we can take some more.

If you have the time its worth doing and does save a lot of $$$. If I made this one again I would make the roof out of lightweight canvas just to make it a bit more durable but I would still use the nylon for the walls, you can't be it.

It restricts you in the same ways as a roof top tent but given that it takes 5 minutes to put up its not really a problem.

We have a hannible roof top tent and the only thing I don't like is the weight of it.

It would be great if it had nylon sides and canvas roof under the nylon fly it already has and maybe something like fibreglass over a thinner ply for the base as the ply base is 15mm 5 ply.

All in all though it is the best investment we have made so far, we just spent the long weekend in it, that was the first time we spent more than a night in it and it got more comfy each night.

It was even cool enough to have a sleep in the middle of the day when it was parked in the sun most of the day (but I was pretty tired from the night before) so I am very very happy with it.

Now I just have to get another 3 mates around to take it off again....

By the way, love the awning, I might do the same of the rack on the disco.
