Re: Drive away awning vs stand alone tent
Seem to have drifted of the point a bit folks. It occurred to me that looking at awnings compared with the cheaper tents, the awnings are slightly taller and easier to stand up in when your eating your black pudding.

Re: Drive away awning vs stand alone tent
Thank you for the replies. The Fiamma awning sounds interesting. Would that be the 1.9m long for the Bongo? I like the idea of something to counterbalance the weight of the side fitted kitchen when driving with just the driver and one passenger (doesnΒ΄t apply with 6 people I guess). With a pop-top, ...
