If you were to buy a new RV, would you pay for this option? Or is this just a waste of money?
I find it very useful ...
1. Provides shade and protection from rain for outside things and cooking. This is worth it's weight in GOLD IMO when it's really raining heavy. Can leave wet umbrella and/or rain gear outside vs. having it drip everywhere inside the trailer. Our trailer didn't come with a MUD ROOM ... did yours:W
2. Helps keep trailer cooler on very hot days by shading a lot of one side of the trailer depending on how exposed that side is because of trailers orientation and surrounding trees or lack thereof.
Detractors will worry about wind, etc., but in 40 years we've never lost or had an awning damaged from this. We only bring it in if there is severe or high wind warnings.
