good quality car cover for outside parking
Ok gents, need to move the truck (71 F-250 long bed) to outside for a few months, (concrete pad pre garage build) looking for a good weather proof cover that fits our trucks well, whatcha got!
1971 F250 Camper Special, family owned since 1972
1983 Cherokee, last of the big ones, bought in Italy, family owned since 1998
1965 Corvair Corsa Convertible, 140 engine, 4 speed.
HE guides my path, forgives me when I stray and lights my life

I have a cover raft carhart cover (they make others) and it’s a nice cover as long as your mirrors fold. Not cheap and took a while though..,

Beware the cheap non breathable ones!!!
I put one over the 71' Ranchero years ago and it actually started rust in our South Florida rainy season in less than one month, (even thought there was a decent coat of wax on the body)!
Pay more here and be glad you did!
