Where I am at the wind can be steady at 20mph so just wondering what you think of it so far and if you would go with a different brand like ARB if you bought again.

So far so good! The only issue with it is getting it set up. If its a windy day there would be no way for me to do it by myself, but with a someone else helping its no big deal. Once its up it seems to be pretty sturdy. I also made sure to angle my 4runner to block most of the wind so it just floats over the top of the awning. I haven't even used the little spikes with lines to anchor it either.
Also I bought it used, I really didn't have any preference on brand it was just a good deal and I hopped on it. I didn't do any research on awnings beforehand, so I am not sure if ARB is better than Dobinsons or anything like that
