SOME power awnings. The Carefree of Colorado power awning that was installed stock by K-Z on my Spree had zero tilt and a dump feature that would dump water all over whomever was unfortunate enough to be underneath the awning in a heavy downpour. :M I hated that awning so much I had it replaced with a manual Dometic 8500 which could be tilted WAY down to allow water to easily run off it. The Coachmen we purchased later had a Dometic power awning that would tilt quite a bit and also would allow rainwater to easily run off. :B The devil is in the details. ;)
A couple we camp with has this awning, does not tilt but will dump when it gets "full" and you don't want to be under it when it does. Ours on the other hand does tilt thank goodness.

We also have the Carefree of Colorado power awning on our Arctic Fox. On ours you can tilt the awning. There are optional arms that push in spring loaded buttons that you use to adjust the tilt. It came from the factory with the optional adjustable arms.
Ours is from Carefree of Colorado, the Longitude model.
