Winter cover or trekker caps

[Phil-CO]

Hope someone can help me . I have a Trekker cap on my 2501TS . I used an ADCO cover the last couple years but it went south this last winter , seems like the additional fabric over the cap allows for the wind to eventually tear the front.



Has anyone with a Trekker cap found a good cover , maybe better fit with the Trekker? Thanks

Where was the tear or wear?
What model Adco cover was it?
If an Adco Designer Series, there are top cinches and straps around the cap/windshield/hood which should let you gather up some excess material.

Don't overtighten.

Pad sharp edges.

Should get 4 or 5 years out of it.
I've had 3 Adcos, last one Designer Series. Sides do require minor patching and you can get wear in the front where it touches the pavement.

Thanks Chris , I will take some of the steps you mention , I thought 2 years was short use , hope I get the 4-5 years on this next one .

It's a live and learn with the covers. I don't leave anything to chance. Get some pool noodles they're great for padding

Put a piece over your generator exhaust. The wind will push your cover over it and wear a hole in it.

Pad your gutter downspouts and rear bumper ends unless you've got a newer unit with molded in bumper

Foam rubber packing materials and twine can be used in areas pool noodles won't work.

I've posted pictures of my padding. Let me know if you want them

Why not just call ADCO/Covercraft and see if they already have a pattern for your unit with a trekker? If not, they will send you a measurement sheet/instruction so they can make one that fits correctly.
