To cover or not

I leave my Thor ACE covered for 7+ months in the summer in Georgia while I'm living in Alaska. I bit the bullet at bought a Goldline from National Covers, definitely the high end of covers.

The second summer under the cover was it for the cover. It almost shredded as I pulled it off. The good news, the coach was in PERFECT shape, inside and out.

Goldline gave me a prorated (fair I thought) big discount on a new cover. It just finished it's first seven months on the coach and one rip happened as I pulled it off. I'm not surprised.

Since I'm gone so long I feel the cover is mandatory. It breathes. I cinch it down with ropes in addition to the straps that came with it. I make sure there will be no chafing in the wind.

Cheaper covers will last one season. Expensive will last two or three. Do the math if you want to cover.

They are big, heavy, awkward and nearly impossible to fold back up when pulled off. Definitely a two person job.

BUT, my coach looks great, smells great when I uncover it every November to head out on the road for the winter.

I'm sold on covering for my specific needs.
