Lee Cappelletti Posted March 23, 2023 Share Posted March 23, 2023 Ok-...My fault...I moved the trailer without bringing the awning back in ! Needs to be replaced. This happened mid-September last year. I have had a new one ordered through a local "RV" place. Here it is mid March...still no awning... Girard is telling them that it is a "custom" awning...that is what is taking so long ... How can it be "custom" ?... they must make 500-600 a year for Oliver... Starting to get..."crazy"... 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators SeaDawg Posted March 23, 2023 Moderators Share Posted March 23, 2023 Our original awning (2008) suffered from a bowed arm and saggy fabric. (Yes, we often leave it out when we have a moderate rain.) Oliver hooked us up with a direct replacement, at a reasonable price. I second Bill's suggestion, if you are anywhere near Hohenwald. Or, if you just want to revisit beautiful middle Tennessee.

MAX Burner Posted March 31, 2023 Share Posted March 31, 2023 Slight deviation from the original intent of the thread... But, Has anyone experience in adding a manual street side awning? I installed a Fiamma on my Casita - not tough at all, but the OTT awning is 4 feet longer. Could be challenging, I'm thinking.
