Slide Toppers / Awnings
Does Grand Design offer Slide Toppers/Awnings? I don't seem to see these on the trailers and I don't see them listed as standard or optional equipment. If not, why? These are high end units, correct?

"High end units." Not really. They are good units at a mid-point in price and quality. Grand Design's customer service is what sets them apart.
A lot of folks do have slide toppers installed by their dealers, though. If you read over on the Escapees and RV-Dreams forums, there is a lot of "chatter" about slide toppers. As a full-timer, I would really like to have them on moving days. On the other hand, we've spent a lot of nights in high winds where those with toppers have described having to pull their slides in to dampen the noise and get some sleep. On the plus side (besides moving days), they can help keep the tops of the slides cooler on those hot, sunny days.

They also get rid of the 'tapping' on rainy days and nights (which can keep one up).
