We just replaced our 20 year old awning in September. This awning has sat rolled up 90% of the time in Southern California sun near the beach most of the time and in the desert several months every year.

I'm guessing a $20 investment in one of these DIY awning covers may have extended the life another 20 years..... I will look in to making some sort of cover.
Thanks to all above and the ideas you've shared.
