Default Car Cover

Any suggestions for a car cover for the GS? It will be inside in a heated area, so basically just to keep dust and criters of the paint.

Mine is outside and covered with a Wolf from Mid America. $140 for the cover, and it only last for one year. The cover I am using now is not yet a year old and is beginning to tear at one of the seams. The other two just left blue powder on the car when it was removed. California or Noah, not WOLF. :cuss :cuss

I have NO idea what kind I have because my mom got it for me last christmas. It seems to be holding up pretty well and isn't leaving anything on my car otherwise. Dust still gets under it though when its outside. I haven't tried it when its in a garage or anything though. Just thew it in the washer today and is still working great. Wish I knew what kind it was... :confused:

if its only going to be INSIDE, you really only need a light wieght cover.

NOAH (and others) make such covers, and they are much lower in price than the multi layered "outside covers.

Unless CATS are a problem...... they can and DO tear a light cover to pieces.

My car sits outside, and I have a 2nd cover (all weather, low $) that I use to protect my primary cover. The all weather cover is SHREDDED from cats! :eek:
