Overall consensus on Truck Camper covers?
Im personally not a fan of covers, it just seems like a lot of work. But I am considering one for my camper, it will be stored outside in Socal. Thoughts and for those who do use them, how long doe...

In SoCal you are protecting from the sun much more than the rain. The ADCO type covers cost around $150-$200 and are fairly lightweight and easy to install. They will last two years in the California sun before becoming too fragile. I went through three of those. A Calmark cover (Sunbrella) will cost about 4 times that but will last at least four times that, probably longer. I have one of those now, 3 years old, pretty much still like new. It is quite a bit heavier and therefore more difficult to install/remove. I can do mine in about 20 minutes either way, but I cheat: I use my 40 foot JLG knuckle lift. Without that just carrying it up a ladder to the roof is a fair amount of work.
Far preferable in California would be a canopy that you could just drive under, if circumstances allow. All you need to do its get it in the shade.
