Hi BD2BD,
Welcome to the Heartland Owners Forum and to the family. We have a great bunch of folks here with lots of information and all willing to share their knowledge when needed.
I am sure you will get some opinions soon about covers for RV's. Most folks do not use them. If they are not good and well fitting and the winds blows, you can get rub spots and damage to the finish.
Enjoy the forum.

One of my last rigs was a park trailer with a rubber roof. It sat outside on the same spot for 10 years. Never had a cover. Roof held up fine with only a couple washings in 10 years. No roof treatments, only a couple wash jobs and I checked the caulk annually. I can't see a need to use a cover in our climate. Maybe if it was baking in the sun every day..Look around on the net and you will find lots of pros and cons...Don

Although we have never had a cover on ours I have talked to several people and read posts about covers for your RV. From what I have heard the biggest drawback is the covers seem to move rubbing the rv under it causing damage to the roof and/or finish on the rv. In my opinion the best cover is either a metal or wooden carport type cover. It would have to be capable of handling a snow load if you are in that climate.
