Winter cover?

Did once. The cover blew apart in about three weeks. Garbage man loved me! Never again.

Bummer. :(

Ive not had any problems with mine but wind is not an issue here. I bought the Goldline Class C cover - see below. They're pricey but it's been worth it so far.

Good luck.

Aubrey, can I ask if you leave it on all winter? Does it cause any mildew issues, or can the RV breathe? I hope that's not a Stoopid question.

Our TT has a roof that doesn't leak so I don't think it needs a cover over it. One winter about 10 years ago, we put a cover over a TT and when it was time to go camping there was to much ice and snow on the cover to get it off. We haven't put a cover on since then.

Yes, I leave it on until March when I go to Phoenix for baseball spring training.

It was on last winter with no mildew issues and it's been on most of the summer. Rainy in the winter and dry in the summer here in Olympia, WA. I do have it cleaned and waxed before I put it away which probably helps.

We cover every winter for about 6 to 7 months. Our TT still looks new after 10 years and I attribute that to the ADCO cover. It's clean and dry at the beginning of the season when we uncover.

Do you guys in Washington get a lot of snow?

We cover ours every winter and yes, last year we had lots of snow! You need to get a cover that is made for an rv (not the blue tarp)! While our trailer is only 3 years old, it too looks brand new (not from lack of camping).

We use a Sunshield tarp bought online. Search this Forum for `RV cover' for lots of information.
