Truck covers
 
Looking into truck covers . Probably indoor type . If anybody has had good luck with a particular brand or type it would be great to hear it . My main concern is keeping the paint nice and a soft cover .

www.calcarcovers.com is where I buy all my covers & they have many options to choose from but they arent cheap.

I have 2 of them right now.
The one for my black truck is a Plushweave series that is supposed to be a "paint pampering" cover.

If I had one it would be from CCC - California Car Covers.

No if's, and's or but's about it.

I use the california car cover on some of my trucks and they work well. They have an outside cover that works great on keeping the weather out and also the fine dust that most covers seem to get under them. They also have great warranty service if you have a problem with their covers.
