Most Popular Thule for 2002 Ford Excursion

Excellent customer service! Great job everyone at etrailer!

One of the best purchases I have ever made. Easy to deploy and easy to retract. Installation is simple also. Impressive engineering

We replaced our Carefree awning with the Thule manual hideaway awning on our Travato 59G. It was an easy replacement and it did not require any modifications or calibrations. Another great side of the Thule awning is you can secure the awning with tie downs which protects the awning from instant surprising wind gusts.

Seems to be of good quality will see when we use a few times. The directions are terrible however

I've been on the hunt for this awning for over a year as its been out of stock. There are other options out there for the Sprinter van but this one was the best choice for my rack. You do need to purchase the mounting brackets separately, which come with different options for attaching to crossbars amd roof rails. I had some roof rail pucks laying around that I used to attach the brackets too. This is very versatile and can be set up with the legs on the ground or with the Thule optional brackets(Purchase separately) that attach the legs to the van..this is great if setting up on a hard surface or if you need to keep your dog on a lead and not get tangled up.the only tricky part for me is that my van is tall so once I get the awning out about 2 ft, I have to hop in the van and get the legs out- no biggie.this is very nicely made and easy to set up take down. Lots of optinal accessories as well

After a ton of research I chose the Hideaway roof rack mount awning for my Ford Transit van conversion project. The awning was easy to mount, (did so in about 1 hour with help of my wife). I mounted my roof rack mounting brackets upside down onto my home-made roof rack and it fits beautifully.
