I want to purchase a 5th wheel cover for my 5th wheel. It is a 1999 27.5ft 5th wheel bunk model. During the winter and spring months here where i am its a lot of wear and tear on the trailer. Snow and rain constanly melting going in every crevise and crack and the freezing daily, especially when we get our chinooks.
So lookin for people that actually owned one and what they though of them and how long do or should they last?
I am going on vacation in through the states and would like to buy down there as it will be chaeper than Canada.
Would also like to buy in Seattle if possible. No sales tax and near the end of my vacation so i dont have to keep tripping over the box on my vacation.
Thanks all.
Like you I'm from Canada and bought an Adco cover while in US. They work OK, provide excellent protection and unlike other covers, they wont damage the RV.
The problem I have is the following. They do not last (at least not here, the is my 2nd one after 3 years) and when you have them installed, it is almost impossible to remove snow from the roof during winter without damaging it.
But... I think they are worth it if you do not have to remove snow during winter season. I found a windy spot where I do not get much accumulation.
I dont remove the snow at any points so that shouldnt be a problem. We got so many Chinooks here , that takes car of the snow ever month or so.
