Anyone have a recommendation for a truck cover to keep dust and rain drops (from when the garage door opens) off my pickup when stored in a garage?

Just bought one as well from carcover.com. Was looking for indoor storage cover to protect from dust. Found this online company with good reviews and free flight and $80. We will see how it is once it arrives this week. My concern is my 79 k10 has the 3 point mirrors that don't fold.like the std folding mirror. Think I'll be fine and sounds like decent cover.for $$. I have bought califoria car covers for my 87 R10 and 68 camaro, very high quality covers but just didn't want to spend $300+ on a cover

This is the same thing I am looking into also now. My 4-car garage has NO room for my 51 Ford Truck project I wanted to do over the winter months.

So, as shameful as it sounds I think I may park my dually outside on some wood planks, and throw a cover over it. What is a GOOD heavy duty cover that can withstand rain, wind, snow….all of it? I'm in S.E. MN...so we get it all.

I’ve looked around a bit and everyone claims to have the best covers, and reviews are all over the place. What would you guys suggest?

Thanks in advance!

Cheapest cover you can find to protect from a tarp scratching if you have good paint. Then a blue tarp so it doesn’t soak up moisture and the snow slides off.
Snow and ice sticks to soft covers and is hard to remove and freeze thaw creates ice that tears up soft covers.

I don't know if these guys make covers for trucks but I am very happy with the one that came with my camp trailer.

It's from classic accessories. It fits nice and tight. This will be its fifth winter and still looks brand new.
