We live in Florida and as you can imagine the sun is just brutal on any type of RV.
Thinking about a cover. But I have questions.
1. Is it a good idea? My biggest concern would be mold. Right behind sun's brutality is the sunshine states's humidity.
2. Opinions on best covers would be great.
Thanks all and Happy RVing!
We live on the other side of the state from you. Our fifth wheel was stored in the open and yes the sun gave it a beating, so much so I finally paid double to store it in the covered area of the storage facility. It was faded to begin with, we bought it from a couple that full timed. When we bought our new TT we decided to keep it under cover. I really think you would have trouble with mildew and mold with any cover, no matter how good. Before we moved the fifth wheel under cover, the space it occupied in the storage facility was adjacent to a sprinkler and that particular side of the trailer received little sun exposure through the day. Had nice areas of algae looking stuff growing on the trailer skin. Covered and exposed to rain, I think you would have problems with both the trailer and the cover growing fungus..............
