Unhappy Replace total awning on Tuscany 42HQ

I simply hate the awning on our 2016 Tuscany 42HQ. There is a front and a rear. They do not go out far enough to even sit 4 people under the front and 2 people in the rear. They go basically straight out. The rear awning only covers 1/2 of the large window. When looking at it, the placement isn't even in the middle in order to over the window. They are Carefree. We had a Winnebago Journey before and the awning went much further out and downward. Any suggestions?

You can adjust the Carefree awnings downward. Look on the side of the arm you'll see a "button" sticking out with a bunch of holes. Push in the button and you can slide the awning to a different position.

On our Axis the buttons on the front arm face the front of the RV.

Once adjusted you can leave them in that position when retracting provided there's 3 holes or less difference between front & rear arms.
