Adding Additional Awnings

We have an AF and would like to add an awning on the slide out. Has anyone had this done and what was the coast? The awning on the AF is a nice size but does not provide enough coverage. I have seen other fifth wheels with an awning on the slide out but never on an AF so I'm sure if this can be done. If you can provide what you think is welcomed.
  • We did ours on the west coast. ;)

    There will be some that will tell you how worthless those awnings are but I have installed them on a couple of trailers I've had and find them very beneficial. They area especially nice for camping under tree's that drop needles and for keeping a lot of heat from coming through the thin roof of the slideout.
    It's no problem adding them to your AF and it probably already has the upper mount for them.
