I'm thinking about getting a cover for my GMC. I think I am supposed to
order a 24' Travel trailer cover and am wondering is this is a suitable
product

http://www.campingworld.com/order/wizard/index.cfm?skuNum=20637d&prodid=4583&rv=ttfr&cord_Group=24

Catalog Item #49125 is listed at $299.99

As certified Scotsman, I'd hate to waste a cent on a purchase this
large...in fact it ranks right up there with my most recent vehicle
acquisition ! <VBG>



Thanks in advance.

Mike in NS

Mike,
After supplying people with non custom fit covers, we soon realized that
they did not last long as the fit too looosly and would tear.
So now we supply the ones for the GMC and have no complaints.
They sell for $690-790 depending on material.

On our return trip from Amana purchased a 22-24' Adco Travel Trailer cover product #32842. I believe the price was $299 with 4 free wheel covers. It was a tight fit going on but it doesn't blow around much. Time will tell about the durability of the product.

Mike,

As one Scotsman to another, years ago I purchased a fitted Tyvek cover for the GMC. It lasted only about 3 years and I was never happy with it. Have a tarp over pipe framed enclosure which has provided much better protection since 2005 (Shelter Logic West Haven, CT (800)932-9344)
Add a vapor barrier on the ground, otherwise we end up with a terrible humidity chamber :^(
