Cover for 2017 24.1 Vegas?

Does anyone have a recommendation where we can find a cover for our 2017 24.1 Vegas? Any particular type better than another?

Our Motorhome sits in the driveway when not used. This is our second winter and we think it's best to cover it now.

This may be a stupid question, but, during the winter, we typically plug it into Shore Power occasionally, to keep the batteries charged. Is that OK to do when covered? Or does the cover need to come off while charging?

Thanks in advance.

Kathleen and Greg

An RV port 18'*25' does the job. About $2000

Keeping it plugged-in and covered will not be a problem!

Look for Class C covers that about fits.

When I picked up a cover for our 24.1 I grabbed a Class C one for 22-26 ft. Fits nice and snug. Don't get one for a Class A--it will be very loose.

Jamie...thanks for the info....we have been storing our rv's in a facility for a number of years...but, Ron is considering building an open garage for it..and may get a cover. Have you had any rubbing of the finish with your cover?

Nothing noticeable--it is pretty tight at the front and back. In addition at our storage lot it is surrounded by other campers which provide a little bit of a wind break.

Do you happen to have the dimensions and manufacturer for the cover you purchased. I've been looking and haven't found either a Class A or Class C that seems to have all three dimensions that will fit. I've found a 348"L x 105"W x 120"H that I like. I realize that a length longer than 306" (our length) could be synched, and the height at about 120" will probably go to the middle of the tires, but the problem I'm having is finding one that's wider than 105" (our width is 94" plus about 12" for each mirror).

Thanks for your help.

I simply picked up an Adco Class C cover for a 24' motorhome. It fits just fine.
