My personal opinion is that covers are a waste of time and money - hard to use, they rot if exposed to elements - cheaper in long run to build a simple carport.

Cant agree with you more.
Get a BIG GREY TARP or two from a hardware store. It will work just as well.
The caravan covers i have had were a waste of money and yes they do degrade. But still using the Same Grey Tarp years later, When I use it that is.
YES , YES , Yes lol and a pain in the butt for us older folk. Okay if you have space for a Carport otherwise a Cover is good if you can manage one. Covers have their advantages and as well as Dissadvantages .
Keep the Queensalnd harsh Sun off your nice shiny Van but your solar if fitted does not get a chance to do its and the van internally gets a tad hotter than normal which can lift or cause some minor damage to componants internally.

There is a clip on youtube that shows you how easy it is. We have always done it this way, ppl in the USA showed me in 1985! The clip is by an Aussie in WA, and he has 2 articles. It takes ME on my own 5 min to roll it and 3-5 min to put on. I swear by it.
