Awning question

Hello all,

We just purchaesed a new 5th wheel and it has the new type of awning. I am used to the version with the long arms not this one with the arms way up there.

My question: can I hang the sun screen from this awning? The sun screen is the type that slides into the track along the front edge.

Are you able to hang an Add-A-Room from this awning?

Thank you for your advise,
Dave :h

    Sure you can add a sun screen. Just get a step stool or back you truck up and stand in the truck bed to reach the rail to slide it in the track.

    I have seen sunscreens hanging from that type of awning but haven't seen Add-a-Rooms used with them.

    I know wind can be a problem under certain circumstances.

    You don't say what brand/model of the awning you have. Your owner's manual will quickly answer your question. rockin'
