I've had one from California Car Cover for the past 6 years. It still is in great shape. Very soft and won't harm the paint. Truck is parked in the garage.

Re: who makes a good truck cover??

I bought a California Car Cover for mine here on the board from Film Guy. I am totally happy with it for inside storage.

Re: who makes a good truck cover??

I have thought about getting a cover for mine but worry about being to rough on my antenna. Do these covers cover the antenna or is there just a hole it goes through?

Most times they tell you in the description. I know "Evelution 3 & 4 covers" you make a small X cut where the antenna is located. You can not wrip this stuff so not to worry.
