IRONMAN 4x4 AWNING REVIEW: Ultimate testing in the Texas Desert

This review is the 4th video in a series detailing all the component parts of my car-camping setup. Designed for mounting atop an SUV roof rack, I'd recommend the Ironman 4x4 Awning for anyone living on the road.
2:42
After the review, watch us put this 1-year-old awning to the test way out in Big Bend National Park's backcountry. For anyone with questions about this product, or where/how to camp in Big Bend, hit me up in the comments.

Hey thanks! I know it's been a long radio silence, but hey what can I say, I move at a snails pace... but move nonetheless!

[@KaskadeHD]

[@UTeeNye]

[@kendellharbin]

Glad you enjoy it!

[@jarengalbraith7930]

[@robcurrie7107]

looks like an awesome trip!

[@kendellharbin]

Highly recommend BIG BEND!

[@reanthegreat]

Awesome! Please post more your content is great!

[@thomasmcguigan5626]

Since this was posted a year ago, how is the awning holding up now? Do you leave it on your vehicle all the time? Any problems with the bag, zipper or awning fabric? Do you have to treat the fabric at all (waterproofing, etc.)?

[@kendellharbin]

All great questions. It's held up extremely well! I've got it mounted 24/7 and the only noticeable wear and tear is fading to the color of the fabric.

[@MikeJovani]

Just curious what are you using to film out there? You can see into the shadows and the sky which I can never get with my gear. Great content, as always. :)

[@kendellharbin]

Hey mike, thanks. All shot in my iPhone 12 mini. These lil guys pack a punch! I got a link in the description if that’s your thing :-)

[@kendellharbin]

To be clear, the “out there” footage of big bend was in the iPhone. The opening shots of the awning were a friends camera… Sony something

[@MikeJovani]

@@kendellharbin That's exactly the info I was after, I've noticed my iphone has more dynamic range than my DSLR. Came out lookin dang sweet. Love your content, primo shit as always.

[@yeeeeyee]

Awesome video. 3rd gens rule. Definitely getting an awning for mine

[@kendellharbin]

Right on!

[@danwhiteman2529]

Peek-a-Boo @4:50, between the rocks. Happy Trails

[@jordancarr1817]

On a scale from easy to annoying, what’s it like to set this up with two people as opposed to solo?

[@kendellharbin]

Kinda the same deal as setting up a tent. With the right person, objectively easier. With the wrong person, annoying. But arguably easy to do solo regardless.

[@jordancarr1817]

@@kendellharbin thank you!!

[@soy_red]

love your content!

[@jvogler_art4708]

Awesome 4runner! The video i wanted to see was how you did off the grid solar power on this rig!

[@kendellharbin]

That’s video is next in the pipeline. Stay tuned!

[@Steve-sj5ju]

Hello what L bracket are you using to mount? 😊

[@kendellharbin]

There is an L-bracket that comes with, but I happen to be using something made of trash and welded together. Long story...

[@dannip9644]

awesome!!

[@rsville5481]

Nice but needs a better bike rack :) . Perfect soundtrack.
