    Re: What canopy size to buy?

    The height is adjustable and it is easy to set up. If you can, try to find an aluminum frame version. The steel frame weighs about 65 pounds. Aluminum is about 1/3 the weight and will be easier to transport and setup if you are mobile. It will be a little more expensive but worth it.

    Re: What canopy size to buy?

    It's like I'm talking to myself around here. Didn't we have this conversation before? Where you told me it took you 8 hours to set up a canopy and I told you I can set up my 10x15 in like 3 minutes?

    I did not tell you it took me 8 hours to set up a canopy, what I said was that I was working alone and you have a helper, which makes a huge difference

    I haven’t got it down to 3 minutes yet but I’m getting close.

    Here is another shot of my 10 x 15 Caravan Canopy Titanshade. It covers a good portion of the truck and it is easy to set up and transport.

    I work by myself at least two days a week. My son is also a college student so he takes three days a week off during the school year. I can set up that canopy, the same 10x15 we're talking about, in 3 minutes by myself. If you bet me $50 I can't, I'll post a video of me doing it.

    I leave the canopy on the legs and store the whole thing upright in my trailer. When we don't use it, we just remove it from the trailer and stand it up out of the way.

    Why the sour post, suds?

    Lets keep it friendly and not condescending.

    You have provided excellent info in many threads. Cool?
    It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

    Yes, I have. That's kind of the point.
