Truck Cover

[BT]

I live in an area with pine trees and my truck gets covered with pine needles which get everywhere - door jambs, under the hood, intake air cowling, rear door of topper, etc.

Any recommendations on a cloth fitted cover?

Cover Craft makes excellent covers. Look on autoanything.com as they seem to have the best prices. I have read to not use the noah as it is heavy. Be aware that a cover on a dirty vehicle and wind will cause problems with the vehicle finish. Sometimes you have to weigh the good and the bad and make a decision. Good luck. Here is a link

I have a Cover Craft for my 79 C10. It is an indoor cover, but the quality of it is top notch. I would expect the same from their outdoor ones.

Ain't that the truth DavidC! I bought an "expensive" cover to place over my Scamp drag car. I bought the lock kit and the wind straps for the front and back ends Several times over the course of the last winter I had to fix the straps and recover the two ends. Pulled the cover off last spring and the paint was just beat to heck from the cover and the hooks for the wind straps. I would have been better off leaving the paint exposed to the snow and ice. The car looks terrible now. I have contemplated the cab cover for my Ram for when it has to sit outside which isn't very often but after seeing what a cover did to my race car, it ain't happening for my Ram!

Just my .02 cents.

My mother had the same issue with pine needles, pitch, etc..., solved it in Maine fashion.

Cut the trees down and sent them to the Pine mill......just sayin'......

I spent 700.00 dollars and erected a "Shelter Logic" garage in a box to house my 84 for the winter. Same problem with pine trees, needles and sap not to mention the snow.
