Truck Camper awnings

I have a Shademaker Supreme Bag Awning on my Palomino Bronco 1200. I put mounting rails on both sides of the camper so I can take advantage of any camp setup. I do not leave it attached when on the road, the zipper leaks and if you don't unroll to dry a wet awning it will mildew, I have seen many. I slide the bagged awning up between the bed and the back cabinet and bungie it to lift tube. If we don't use it at a site I just bugie to the top horizontal tubes out of the way. The Supreme is worth the extra cost over the standard model. Normally we just stake the bottom of the two legs and add no extra stakes or ties. I keep some cheap 1" straps handy and next run them from the outer ends to the camper tie downs on the truck if the wind is coming up. It has survived in some pretty high winds but it is noisy, the metal frame work will rattle. If very high winds are predicted we put in a couple of stakes and extra ropes or take it down. We also lower it part way, more in the direction the wind is coming to make less of a kite out of it.

Ordered through a local canvas and awning shop, had it the size and color I wanted in a couple of days and they carried the track.
