Will The Thule Hideaway Awning Fit My Ford Transit Camper Van?
Question:
Hello, What awning would you recommend for a medium roof 130 in wheelbase Ford Transit camper van?
asked by: Chris J
Expert Reply:
The Thule Hideaway awning is a great choice for a Ford Transit. The primary use of these awnings is camper vans like Ford Transit or Ram Promaster. It will really come down to what size you want, and how much space you have available. The Thule Hideaway # TH490011 is 8' wide and comes with everything needed to mount to the side of your van. We also have it available is a 6-1/2' wide # TH490018. Either of these will fit your van nicely. Personally I would go with the larger size TH490011. The more shade the better, and you will have plenty of room to mount on your van with a 130" wheel base.
