I need advice. I'm looking for a good car cover for a reasonable price. I'm wondering what brand/model of cover you guys like best? My current cheap cover lets too much dust on the car. My 86 GT is under a carport and the back of the car gets a little wet too.

Thanks ahead of time for the expert advice. I'm trying to buy this as a Christmas present for myself.

Thanks for the picture 90Mustang,

I have a cover very similar to yours but I dont have a garage. That style would work fine if I had one. The next house I get will have one, but I spend to much time and money on my habit - cars.

I was kind of looking to see what brands/material you guys are using. I'm ready to order but I want to narrow the choices down. I'm looking for something somewhat water proof and soft on the inside for no scratches.

Anyone else?,

Anybody using Wolf car covers. They seem to be more in my price range.

California Car Covers. They are a bit more pricey though. Well worth it in my opinion.

Like my Covercraft much better where Wolf fell short. Had wolf in the past not as good of a dust shield, and eventually ripped at the seam. As always you get what you pay for.

This will probably be my next cover. My current cover is a $100 cover (forget which brand) but not fitted and kinda harsh against the paint
