    When it's hot, it's always nice to have a little spot to get out of the sun. It's a lot hotter out here than it is underneath the awning. So whether you are biking, maybe you're at a sporting event, tailgating, or maybe just overlanding somewhere in the middle of nowhere, well, the Rhino-Rack Sunseeker Awning is gonna bring shade to you so you're not gonna be hot wherever you go. The nice thing about the awning compared to maybe just a stand-up tent, one, it's gonna be up on our roof and it's ready to rip, two, we don't have to put it on the inside of our vehicle, so it's not really taking up any more room on the inside. I really like that. And when it comes to the crossbars and the amount of space it takes up, only about an inch and a half, which is awesome because it's not really gonna limit you from all the other accessories you like to put up on your roof.
    And this, it's just ready to go on top of your vehicle, so you can drive out to wherever you wanna be and provide some shade. If only you could feel how much cooler it is underneath the awning compared to outside, you would definitely be sold on the Sunseeker. But if you wanna see how we got it all set up, stick around, we're gonna show you. So we're in the parking lot at etrailer. Let's just imagine we're at a tailgate.
    So what we're gonna do is get some shade because it's hot out here, and I don't like that sun beating down on me. So step one, unzip on both sides. Once we do that, we can kind of start to undo this. We wanna get these corners up and around. We have to do it on both sides to get it to actually stay, just like that.
    So now that's done. We're gonna have some hook and loops right there, if you wanna hold this up, and that will start to come out like that. And if you're doing this by yourself, it might be a little bit trickier, but I think we can get it done. So we're gonna have little poles in here that will telescope out. So once that's kinda done and loosened up, we could go ahead and start unrolling, just like that.
    Then we have these little holes right here, and that's where our little poles are gonna go. So we'll take this out, fit it into that little hole, just like that. Once it's completely stretched out, we can rotate this so it's not gonna move. While we're back here, it's gonna help, it can go like this, tighten that up, kinda help pivot that. Like I said, it's gonna be a little bit easier with a friend. But sometimes you just like to get to the spot and set up so no one has to do anything whenever they get here but relax. So, now that that's done, do the same thing with this little arm here, the same little half-twist to get the leg out and then half-twist to lock it in place just like that. So we're pretty much almost done. All you gotta is just tie these down with our stakes. Now we wanna go ahead and take this little bag, it's gonna have our stakes in it, and then we're gonna take our little hook and our guy rope. So on one side of the guy rope, we're gonna have a little plastic piece. But right now, we're going to go on the other end, and you just wanna tie this off however you wanna tie it. I usually do just a double just in case so it doesn't slip. So once that is good, and it's nice and tight, what we wanna do is take our stake, then we're gonna go in on a 45-degree angle, so kinda like this with the hook facing away. Once it's like that, just go ahead and push it to the ground best you can at an angle like that. And then what we wanna do is we're going to take this, go underneath, just like that. Then we'll come up top here, and we're gonna have a little peg. That's where this hook's gonna go, just like that. So once that's on there, down low, we'll take our plastic piece, going like this, and then we can tighten it up just like that. What we wanna do with these little hook and loops, just wrap it around like that, and we're gonna have couple on each side. Just be sure to do that just so it's not gonna fly up on us. Well, that was pretty simple. Didn't take a whole lot of time, maybe about five minutes to get it all set up. But now that you saw us set it up and get it all ready, we're gonna go over some more technical specifications. The material is gonna be waterproof. So if you do have rain in the forecast, unlike us, it is gonna be wa

      This is the smaller of the two Rhino-Rack Awnings. It looked great when mounted on the Toyota RAV4. Check it out on our website in the following link.
