To cover, or not to cover?
Hi all, I'm getting ready to purchase a new TT and trade my older one in. Unit already picked out, deposit put down everything..... I'm curious about covering the new one as I've noticed several ...

A better question is, where are you parking it, and when do you plan to cover it?
It's a chore getting a cover on and off. If you keep it covered and uncover when you use it, then cover when you come home again ... you're going to get very tired of doing this very quick!
If you cover over the winter, and you live in a climate that's not pleasant in the winter, it can have advantages. If you winter camp often, it's all a matter of how often you put it on and take it off until you get tired of doing it.
I see you are from SC. You're winters are much more mild than in the Northern States. I see no need to cover. I don't cover mine any more and I'm in a snow state. But, if you park under trees, the cover will do much to protect the camper from tree sap and falling leaves and such.
The thing you need to ask yourself, how often will you cover and uncover. If you cover and uncover more than once a year, more than likely, you'll try it, and very soon get tire of doing it and then quit doing it completely.
I ended up giving my last cover to someone else. I'll probably never cover again. Too much work and camper are made to be outside.... in spite of pealing graphics and fading paint.
