Covers are rated for snow and wind. We found ours on Amazon at $$ off the home site. It is rip stop nylon with several zippers and very light weight. We paid about $350 for a short rv. Classic Accessories PermaPro Heavy Duty RV Cover
The only problem so far is that it can't be put on in the wind so we had to leave it off when we got home from a trip just before a snow storm. I read a lot about how a cover will damage the finish but leaks are worse and I noticed some water after our last ice storm. I will install eternabond on the front seams in the spring but for now a cover is the best I can do to protect it.
I wrap extra bubble wrap and styrofoam around the vents and any sharp areas to keep the cover from chafing in the wind. We did get one hole where it hit the inside of the front fender to keep it from blowing so much we tucked it behind and didn't think of that sharp edge.
Even though we have not had it a full season, I would recommend this cover for price and quality.
