It's a pain to cover, but I do. You pay that much for a camper, you want some protection so it doesn't look like ****. It takes about 30 minutes to cover, which is not bad considering the alternative. We bought our cover at Camping World (on sale) and bought the warranty with it. The replacement warranty is awesome because I trade that out every 3 years for a brand new one (you do have to buy a another warranty on the new cover, but its better than paying another $300-$400. I found out the hard way that wheel covers are just as important. Had to replace 2 of my tires because I didn't cover.
