The truck will be garage kept, but we want to keep a cover over it until we are ready to go for a drive.
Thanks for your recommendations in advance. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 Bolter | | Bolter Joined: Apr 2005 Posts: 7,441 | California Car Covers, not cheap but good quality.ðŸ›

Get any non-air-moisture-tight interior/garage dust-cover.
California Car Covers are excellent - they have different "grades" (around $300 for interior-storage/flannel cover).

Thanks for your insight. Saw California Covers while surfing the net yesterday.
