Default Re: outdoor car cover recommendation

I bought a Covercraft Sunbrella for my Dodge Dakota when I moved here. The cover held up OK for two years of usage, but it lost it's rain repellent after one year. However, it never tore.

Something to consider with outdoor cover use here in AZ. The wind/breeze will blow dust under the cover and the seams will catch it and scratch your paint wherever a seam or tight fit is. It all buffs out, but still an inconvenience. I have since stored the Sunbrella and now I put sunshades in the windows of the Dakota. I also have a part-time shady place in the yard to park it in.

Either way, the paint may receive some sort of damage whether covered or uncovered. That's the reality here in the valley.

BTW, if you want a cover that is too big for your Nova, mine is available, but needs to be laundered.
