Very nice. I have one as well. Makes a great place to sit out of the sun and a nice spot in the evening (with the addition of a Coleman gas lantern).
Mine camper is longer (I have an 8 foot bed) so I was able to attach the lower brackets to the camper body, consequently, I use them when deploying the awning rather than using the 'carport' position. Not an option for you unless you attach one of the brackets to your passengers side door...
8 foot beds do have an advantage.
You might get away with attaching a bracket to your running board below the door and the other too the camper body, just a thought. The extension arms are very adjustable.
Another ting you might want to do is lubricate the bag zipper with some sort of lubricant (I use serving wax which is for bow strings and comes in a stick, available at any sporting goods store). Makes the zipper much easier to deal with....and
You'll need a ladder to get to yours to stow it. I have mine on a PUP so I can reach it pretty easy.
Mine is the same color. A nice (much less expensive) option to a roll up awning and your TC like mine, ships with the rail already attached.
