    Installed my new Roam Adventure Co awning on my 3rd gen off road. It's the 4 foot one thinking about returning it for the 6.5 foot one. I have a prinsu roof rack. Wondering your opinions on the size

    I asked my wife, she said 6.5 is better than 4

    I went with the 6.5 because of the option to add the awning room. personally don’t think it would be of much use if it was any smaller.

    My buddy has me wanting a 270 degree awning now. He sets his up in seconds.

    On the left is his 270 and on the right is the Roam 6.5, got caught in a random thunderstorm while we were setting up camp. Awnings came in clutch

    Yeah.
    I did the 6.5, almost went with the 4 but it just didn't seem like it would do much. I'm glad I did, the 6.5 isn't a lot of cover either but it's just enough. It sticks out a bit, but not bad, and I can't see it while I am driving. I now have it mounted on a Prinsu, but here is on an OEM rack.
