Love my Moonshade! Works off the back or side of my van and I can adjust the legs to maximize the shade. Oh and it doesn’t cost thousands of dollars! Great video Greg, enjoy them all.

[@TrailNewbie]

Thank you so much! I appreciate the comment - so awesome to hear that MoonShade is already in your gear line-up! It really is an awesome and quality product. I’m already thinking of getting another for my wife’s Jeep! 😃👊🏼👏🏻 Cheers!

[@grandeoverland6787]

Glad someone finally put out a video showing that bigger isn't always better! Just made it under that monster log. Seems like the Moodshade saved the trip. What's the saying, no such thing as bad weather, just bad preparation?

[@TrailNewbie]

Love it! 🙌🏻👏🏻🫶🏼 Thanks for the comment buddy, and I think you’re 💯 correct ✅! The MoonShade did save the trip - which ended up being perfect for the first trip out! 🙌🏻🙌🏻😃

[@extraordinarymoments]

Great video as always and congratulations on your views and increase in subscribers. I did a lot of research on awnings and the Moonshade was by far the best product review and I picked one up about a year ago.

[@TrailNewbie]

Thanks Robert! I really appreciate the kind words! You are one of the ORIGINAL subscribers so thank you for joining me for this ride! 👊🏼😃👏🏻 Yes, the MoonShade is totally awesome! So much so, that yesterday I was dreaming of having two up at once! 🤣🙌🏻 Thanks again for watching, my best to you! 👊🏼😃

[@james_the_darklord]

I was going to get the moon shade but at that price it's not worth it so I settled on an awning shelter the back roads by Kelly at half the price

[@TrailNewbie]

Ya, I struggled with the price originally as well. While (full disclosure) MoonShade did send this to me to review and promote, my true opinion is that the pricing is actually worth it. This is based on 2 main things: 1) quality of materials, 2) adjustability/versatility/stability. The Kelty is a solid option as well from what I can tell, and a price performer, so I don’t think you’ve gone wrong at all..! Thanks for the comment and feedback! 👏🏻🙌🏻😃👊🏼
