Burb cover?
 
Does anyone make a car cover for our burbs? I'm going to trailer mine cross country in a few weeks. I'd like to protect the new paint.

I don't know if they make specific for our years,
But I'm sure a cover for a newer Yukon or suburban
Would work good. I'm in the market for one too.

Yeah I didn't expect one for our series but I'm hoping somebody knows a compatible one.

Call California Car Cover Co. Ask them about using a cover while trailering. J

Ok I just ordered a cover but it's not to be used while being towed. Wind and the dirt in the air act like sandpaper.

If you really want to protect it while towing try going down to a local trucking company. Any company that uses flatbeds. See if they have any used tarps that are being retired. Many times the companies have to retire them when they get a hole or damaged. I bought one that had a hole 10 feet in. It was 40 feet long. So I trimmed 10 feet off and now have a 30 foot heavy duty tarp that I use on my trailer when I'm hauling something that needs to be covered.

Brand new these tarps go for $300-$400 but sometimes you can get a good deal on a used one.

I'd cover the burb with your standard cover then cover with the trucking tarp over that.



Here is an example I found on ebay http://www.ebay.com/itm/Flatbed-Truc...item3a8b2adbb9

I just read this but mine came with a cover and I have never used it.
