With the Wilco Offroad 270° Passenger-Side Awning, you don’t just get a simple shade— you unlock a world of comfort, versatility, and rugged style that will revolutionize every outdoor adventure you embark upon.
This isn’t any ordinary awning. Crafted by off-road enthusiasts for off-road enthusiasts, the Wilco Offroad Wilawn270-R attaches securely to your vehicle’s passenger side, pivoting smoothly through a wide 270-degree arc to block harsh sun angles at any hour. Whether you’re parked lakeside for a family picnic, setting up a roadside tailgate party, or just seeking refuge from a sudden desert wind, this awning has your back (and your side!).
Why You’ll Love the Wilco Offroad 270° Awning
- Generous 270° Coverage: Go beyond standard straight-out awnings. The wide arc allows you to create an expansive shaded zone that wraps around your vehicle, giving you extra protection from sun, rain, or pesky wind gusts throughout the day.
- Easy One-Person Operation: No more wrestling with poles and fabric with help from friends. This awning features a smooth, gas-strut-assisted opening system. Simply pull the handle, and the awning glides into place. Packing it up is just as effortless—push it back, lock it down, and you’re ready to roll.
- Built to Brave the Elements: The tough 600D polyester fabric resists ripping, fading, and mildew, so you can confidently tackle dusty trails, coastal beach winds, or mountain humidity. The powder-coated aluminum arms and brackets take on bumps and jostles without bending or corroding.
- Lightweight Yet Sturdy: At just 44 pounds, this awning is surprisingly easy on your vehicle’s roof rack or crossbars. Yet its robust construction supports consistent tension, so there’s no flapping or sagging, even when the wind picks up.
- Universal Fitment: Designed for the passenger side of most cars, trucks, and SUVs, the Wilco Offroad 270° Awning includes adjustable mounting brackets that adapt to square, round, and most popular crossbar systems. No drilling into your vehicle or complicated fabrication required.
Features & Benefits
- Expanded Shade Zone: Traditional awnings extend straight out, covering only a narrow strip. With a 270° sweep, you can angle the awning forward, backward, or anywhere in between to block low sun or sudden showers.
- Quick-Release Mounts: Swap it between vehicles in minutes. If you have more than one adventure rig, you can move the awning quickly without tools or technical know-how.
- Wind-Resistant Design: Reinforced hems and integrated tensioning straps stabilize the awning fabric, reducing flapping in gusty conditions and ensuring you stay sheltered.
- Water Shedding Roof: The slightly domed fabric panels encourage rainwater to run off instead of pooling. Even during a sudden mountain drizzle, you’ll stay dry underneath.
- Compact Storage: Once retracted, the awning hugs tight to your vehicle’s side, adding minimal width to your setup. Its low profile reduces wind drag when you’re on the move.
