Tell me about the ARB Awning Room?

I have the room with floor for my 2500.
It has its own roof under the awning ,couple of vents on the truck side, three windows with roll up covers, and a door.

It also has a door on the truck side to access the interior of the truck. The bottom is heavy gauge pvc and seems to be all around pretty heavy duty.

Easy to attach to the awning. It slides into the channel on the truck side and clips to the horizontal and vertical tubes. Lots of stakes included.

I like it but have only used it out now twice. Great spot for the dog to sleep when he's gross.
Here it is in the driveway not stacked down.

Great reply gophere, I too have been looking at adding this option but there really haven't been any photos posted or reviews out there yet. I do kind of wish that it was reversible in orientation, meaning you could have the entry door oriented towards either the front or back of the vehicle, but I guess that would require it having the track attachment along more than one side of the room. I did build my awning quick release mounts so that it can be used on either the drivers side or passengers. With this room it looks like the drivers side might make more sense as it'll put the entry door right next to the tailgate of the truck.
Lately I've been just sleeping in the back of my truck with the dog, but this might make for a nice option for a dry place to sleep for 2 people and our dogs for our quick winter hunting trips, and won't require emptying the contents of the truck bed out. Thinking that adding a Mr. Buddy heater and a pair of those low profile cots will cozy it up a bit more too... Glad to hear the floor seems sturdy!
Now if only AutoAnything would stock the 2000x2500 size for their super cheap price!!!
