Covers

I am researching covers. What is the difference between the price differences. Some are $500 and some are $100, pay what you get for? Quality?

    I have a Adco cover on my class C for the winter. Its ok, but is thin and in some spots the rain gutter is wearing thru it. And i dont like the fact that it isnt completely waterproof. It will shed water , but its like a tent almost. If it gets touched from the underside, it will let water seep in. I will eventually get a COMPLETELY waterproof cover someday. For now, i will put a tarp under it and then the adco cover over that for the winter. Because we get snow up here, and with the cover on, i cant get on the roof to remove it


    Most of these covers I believe have a waterproof top with breathable sides. That's the way mine was. They don't keep the sides clean, but they do protect the rig from the UV rays.

  • I had a cheap $180 full class C cover for a 23' motor home. It finally
    bought into it after 7 winters. I'll probaly get another one this year.

  • We use a Sunchield tarp; black on one side and silver on the other. For more info search this Forum for `Sunshield'.
