How About Some Good Thoughts From A Bunch Of You.............We live in =
Oregon where it rains quite a bit during the winter months. We're right =
next to the ocean, which turns the average raindrop into a straight =
saline solution. We have no building to park our beauty in. I have a =
good quality nylon cover, but I hesitate to use it. Will condensation =
build up under the cover and turn our Coca Cola into a rustbucket, or =
will the cover save it from the rain? If I leave it uncovered, it dries =
fairly fast, but is this the best way to go? How about a pro and con =
from some of you? Thanks! Jim and Loma Davis sivad
 
The cover should protect it fine if it is moisture resistant and will pass
moisture but protect it from the sun and rain. If you park it on the ground
put a 6 mil plastic sheet under the coach to stop ground moisture from
getting on the chassis. That is where the real problems can develope.

If you can swing it, get one of those portable structures utilizing a
plastic tarp with the steel tubing and at least get it out of the salt
spray. The rain is probably the least of your worries. Get it out of the
sun and spray from the ocean. The cover is good but you need more. Also
those steel covered frames are good. You can get set up from $250 to
$1000. A small price to pay to get it out of the weather.
