I just bought this one. Their prices are the best and they have a good selection of different brands and I like this one I got for about $50.00 shipped. Flannel is real nice if it is stored inside and in a dust free environment. If you have an expensive paint job like we do, I use a softer one (flannel) underneath a weather proof one.

This is the same one I use also, but I also keep mine under a carport and the other in a shop.

yeah,you don't want one that will let ANY kind of dirt under/through it,or the cover will just turn into a big piece of sandpaper!

just a tidbit of info, there is no such thing as a cover that will not allow dust/dirt to get under. It just happens. Best thing to do is once a week or every other week take the cover off and dust the car and then put the cover back on.

I thought somebody had come out with a gore-tex type cover that would breathe,but keep dirt and moisture out!,maybe I got it confused with something else.

We have a really expensive car cover for the Corvette and it never appeared to let any dirt or water in. It was supposed to breathe too in case the car was covered while still wet. I believe is it a Noah cover. $200+

ditto there, that is where the good ole california duster comes in handy!! A good waxing and the dust will slide right off.

think about it, if it can breathe, then dirt can get in
