glad to see the outback again
Slip a key ring through the zipper, it will make it easier to zip. Fixed a jacket that way.
You inspired me to get an outback, after watching a few of your videos sometime ago. Got the wilderness and plan to go on many adventures. Thanks for the cool content! Me and my boy plan to have many adventures on the outback
I personally on my 15 outback bought a Yakima off grid roof rack and used the LP aventure brackets for the ARB series of awnings. I’m sure they’d work with others as well but it’s by far my favorite thing I’ve added to my car so far.
Dude so glad to see you posting about your Suby again!
Great insight Chase, always wonder what items you are using to rig out your Subaru. Personally after a lot of research I chose Cascadia Vehicle Tent (CVT). They have a number of locations nationally. What I like the most about them was the awning included an integrated LED light with dimmer. It’s awesome and easy to use.
Use a zip tie for a zipper hoop. Works great and won’t break.
Love your videos on the Outback - I have one too and the awning is my next planned purchase for it! Thanks 🙏🏽
Thank You! Been looking at the Yakima 6.5’ for my Outback and this helps a lot
I really liked your video. The content was precise and the radical candor was very clear. Tacoma beast had the CVT 79” marked down to $250 US, and I couldn’t pass it up. I have a 2018 Tacoma that I take through National Forests, and campsites. It’s a really good option and very similar in build. Hopefully this is helpful for anyone looking around the time of the comment.
Thanks Chase. Enjoy watching your videos.
Thanks for linking all your stuff! I just got an Subaru Ascent and want a similar set up.
I have the basket linked in the video and I love it! Definitely recommend!!
I’m down in Australia and just purchased my first car, a Subaru Forester. Your channel was the defining factor in my decision to go with a Subaru, and I LOVE watching each of your videos. Keep doing what you do!
Great to hear! Thanks for the comment🙏
You gonna love Subaru)
I've been casually looking into awnings. Knowing how shade is thrown at a campsite, I'd tend to think 6.5' is a pretty narrow slice of shade to chase around. Intrigued by the Yakima SlimShady as it comes with a locking clamp mounting system that fits stock Subaru crossbars, comes on and off in seconds. They are $3-400 though. For sun and rain, I often take 10x10 pop up canopy. It weighs 35#, fits across the rear footwells in an Outback, is fairly quick to deploy, can leave it in camp, move it to chase optimum shade. I've thought about downsizing to an 8x8, even lighter but more coverage than a 6.5' car awning.. hmm. It, like any awning needs to come down with gusty winds, which I find happens more than not in the Pac NW unless in dense forest. Pros, cons, it is fun to geek out on this question.
I have the deluxe tent that attaches to that awning. It's amazing. Has an inside opening so you can access your vehicle. Opens up to a full screen room, or fully closes to an unvented tent. Pretty much 4-seasons.
OBrien, would you mind telling me which tent/awning set up you have? I have a Crosstrek and looking to use it for an extended trip.
Thx for the review, I built one using ABS piping. I like the support on the edges. I just use a regular 6x8 awning and it served me well for one season. Total cost less that $25.
Good to see the Subaru again, great video as always!
Thanks!
I'm thinking about getting one for my Jeep, after looking at your setup I would try to rig it to top rail of the basket to give more head room.
Nice… I’ve been thinking about one for my Outback. 6.6 to 7 feet looks like a good length for the car…. This might be a great option if not sure how much one might use one. You can always upgrade if you wanted. I’m thinking some kind of 8020 L bracket attacked to my Thule rails. That 1x3 or 1x4 stuff. Then figure a way to be able to raise and lower the attachment for headroom. Hmmm… Thanks
Nice video. Everything is clear
I've been considering one for my van! Looking at a similar model!
Well I cannot seem to link to a site where I posted the details of my diy awning.
In short I used a nylon tarp, adjustable tent poles and guy lines from Canadian Tire. I recycled old conduit and a metal broom handle to create a collapsible rod. The rod gets attached to the cross bars with oversized tie wraps when stationary. The tarp is attached to the metal rode with 3 locking pins from Princess Auto. All this is stored in a diy roof box made from an old gun case.
I’ve got an Ironman 4x4 awning for my 2019 Crosstrek and it’s been great! Definitely a necessity if you do a lot of camping
I've got their suspension lift. Thinking I'll get their awning. Black Friday deal
Thank you another great review 😁 I’ve runout of your videos to watch. Will you be making more? 🤞
I grew up in Idaho and I enjoy your videos. You make me want to get a Subaru Outback. I would put a key ring on your zipper slider.
Great idea, thanks👍
hey good video.
as for your broken zipper you can get split rings (keyrings) to fit and will make its easier for you bud
Sidewall is very useful too.
I have the Yakima 6.5 x 6.5 on my 2015 Forester. It attaches to the Yakima rails so, height isn’t an issue. It’s great to have the shade here in AZ. Easy to setup.
Can you use the Yakima Awning with a cargo basket? Im planning to setup my Subaru Forester.
@@dha588 I now have a Skinny Warrior basket as well as the awning.
Hi Chase. Thanks so much for your great videos and info. I am curious what type of cargo box are you using along with the roof rack? I like that it sits on the side and you still have room for the roof rack and awning.
I grew up in Idaho and I enjoy your videos. You make me want to get a Subaru Outback. I would put a key ring on your zipper head.
I had one of those awnings for a week, and it broke twice. (I fixed it once) Next up is a higher end awning I plan to find lightly used to save money.
Let's see I got it for the can am maverick x3 max. I excited to mount it and test it out
I bought exactly the same Subaru Outback, in that color.
Frankly, Chase, while I love seeing you and the Suby again, I was really curious how Sadie was fitting into the “space” you let for her in the new camper.
Lillibet
thanks bro for the video, i sent a email yesterday asking about it, i guess dont worry about it lol.
Haha good timing!
Thanks for sharing!
My pleasure!
Thanks !
What jacket on you? And if you don't mind ON what camera you shot ? Alfa C? Thank you...nice setup by the way 🙌
Check out the Dome 1300 from rhino. Bit expensive but a perfect fit with a small car! Use it with my VW G7 👍🏻
Have some pictures on instgram: instagram.com/gooutlivefree/
Hey can I ask where you got the roof basket from,think you said Amazon I’m in England so my vary a little👍🏻
Do you have the link on the basket that you mentioned on your video that is similar or better than the one you have now? Thank you
Mate, can you share link for those basket mounts you used.
Cheers
Put a keyring on the zipper instead of the broken handle!
Tie a short lace on the zipper thingy.
Is this 2021 Outback? I have recently bought it and Loved it....
Ours is a 2016
Thanks for a great video. Have you had any issues with mould/mildew using it in wet conditions?
You're welcome! I have not, but I always let it dry out before rolling it up or unroll it when I get home if I was unable to dry it beofre putting it away.
Followed both your 2 first links for the awnings and the both are currently unavailable! Still no luck for me.
Shoot, thanks for letting me know. I’ll try to get those fixed
Is it possible to attatch an awning without a roof rack? I’ve got the same outback and I only plan on having a cargo box and awning
I have seen a guy drill holes in the crossbars and attach an L bracket for the awning to then attach to.
Use some Vaseline on the zipper, it helps keep the water out and it’ll also lube it
I have the same Awning
Hello, you know how to put a tent car roof over integrated croosbar 150l. (67 kilos)
Thanks
Its dangerous for the Car subaru outback 2021?
The static weight limit is within the smaller roof tents and 2 people. The weight limits posted for these cars is the dynamic limit of about 150.
Is Thule and the cage roof rack attached to the roof arm load bars that came with the subaru or are they after market ?
Yes, they are attached to the factory roof bars.
@@ChaseChristopher1 oh awesome do you have the dimensions for the Thule?
Also thank you for your videos, very inspiring to just go out and do it.
👍
Dont you use the van econoline anymore?
I do not. I sold it to buy a truck for the house renovation we are working on.
Put you a key chain ring on the zipper
Paper clip replaces broken zipper pull.
Tie a piece of paracord on the zipper.
👍🇬🇧
you made that look to easy
