I can't comment on the actual Eazy-Awn however, I had previously picked up a canopy/sun shelter similar to this http://www.texsport.net/screen-houses-gazebos-c-151/texsport-dining-canopy-silver.html
While it wasn't the greatest shelter (you have to guy each leg, trouble in the wind) I tied off one side to my roof rack and had something that looked very much like the Eazy-Awn.

I have one and feel its a good product at a good value and customer service was excellent. It is not as fast to set up as I would like. It does offer some nice features that other dont. Rain runs off and does not puddle, ez to adapt to multiple vehicles and does not hang off the vehicle when not in use. I like the ability to EZ adjust legs for optimizing the shade through the day.

Or you could go with our Eezi-Awn Awning and add some Rec-Vee Panels to make a separate room if you like! Here is the link: http://www.equipt1.com/companies/Awnings/category-eezi-awn/120348-awnings

But seriously for almost free that is a cool setup and they even show it on an 80 Series

I have the bus depot awning. It takes a few times setting it up to get the hang of it, but then its cake. I chose it because of the ability to put it on either side of the rig.

Yes, you'll have to use guy lines if its windy, but it survived a Utah thunderstorm no problem and kept us dry. Worth it IMO. Best part is it folds up to the size of a camping chair.

Good Luck

I,m looking at getting the same awning and also have a Ford E350. Did you go with the gutter mounts or the suction cup type?

I use the gutter mounts. They seemed to be more secure to me. You do have to avoid putting them where the doors can hit them. I have been thinking about mounting footman loops on the roof just above the rain gutters. That way you can just use nylon straps or bungies to attach the awning. If/when I get a roof rack, I will probably just strap the awning to that. I also attach the awning over the back door on occasion depending on the circumstances I am in. That picture was last fall on an ATV/van camping trip to Kentucky. I used to ride dirt bikes and camped in my van out in the boonies. Now I just ATV, fish, hunt etc.
