Nice to hear!
What kind of cleaning care does that cover require?
Mine can be put straight into the washing machine with just a little Ivory Snow flakes. But I have to air dry it, which takes a sunny day and several hours on my small balcony.
It gets dirty after about 2 weeks, being used under a carport. I imagine yours, being outdoors, will need regular cleaning?
Oh, and after you take it off does it fit back in its bag???
Mine can, but I have to take it off slowly, folding it over from both sides of the car until it's about 2 feet wide, then tightly rolling it up from trunk to hood, squeezing out all the air.

I guess i should read the washing instruxns!! I really don't know. It has a huge back and fits in there very easily. I "fold" it over, front and back, outside surface sides touching. Then i just fold it four or five times across the middle and stuff it in the bag. Truly fabuloso.

Here's a picture of the CoverKing car cover that I ordered through Costco. It was costumed made...notice the pockets for the side mirrors;

I had one like that I ordered from California Car Cover for my '82 GT. It's especially great for indoors, although you can use it outdoors. Because of the material's weaving, it's doesn't repel water all that great. I used it mainly because the car was garaged kept.

On my new car cover, I didn't insert the grommet for the antenna. Instead, I just unscrew it and place it in the truck. That way, no worries about water seeping down the hole.
