I acquired a power awning when I got my 2011 because on the bigger RVs it's near impossible to get otherwise in today's market. I cussed and discussed it at first ... it's slowly growing on me as it is nice to not have to unlock the legs and pull the lever on the roll tube itself to get it retracted say late at night during a rainstorm. However ... I do miss the ability to stake the legs to the ground if I want to. I do miss the ability to lower the awning to within say 4' of the ground in the evenings to get the sun out of my eyes. Yeah I know ... buy a sunshade, but hey maybe I'm not in the market to own one. I do miss the ability to similarily lower the awning if say the ground in front of your unit slopes off quickly as many sites do at the lakes. I'm short (5'7") so it's all I can do to reach the lock knobs on the arms if I want to slope the awning unless I get out the step stool. Soooooooooo there's my take.
