I wouldn't want to put a cover on and off between trips, but for winter it's about a 30 minute or so project - read the instructions thoroughly BEFORE you start. Now, those pine trees.....any other choices? They aren't exactly known for being sturdy in heavy snow, not to mention the pine needles. If you have no other option, suggest you keep the sturdy step ladder handy and a soft bristle, long handle brush and do the best you can. Camping World usually has a good sale about now on covers and they include tire covers at no charge. They can tell you which cover you need for your area and the size when you give them your make and model. A good investment. Tarps are just asking for scuffing the finish and contributing to moisture...not a good idea.
