A big waste of money. RV's are meant to be out in the weather. Covers cause wear marks and can trap moisture. Another product designed to get you to waste money.
I respectfully disagree. Keeping the sun off the paint and interior goes a long ways in preserving the rig. UV rays are harsh. I live in Oklahoma (lots of wind) and have 2 covers on mine....the old one that was beginning to rip and the new one over that. My stickers on my 1992 look new and my interior isn't faded.
You do have to have a method to keep the cover from blowing around, but some of the new covers come with straps that keep the wind from getting underneath it. I've had a couple ADCO (spelling?) covers, and I've been happy with them. If you get more than 3 years out of the cheaper ones, you're doing good...but for $300, you can protect a pretty expensive investment, at least a little.
And even though RVs are designed to keep the water out, all RVs will eventually develop roof leaks and keeping the water off the seals can only help the possibility.
