Bob,
I'm glad to here yours works. I can see that this would be a great cover to
take on the road for shows etc for when you get caught in the rain but I was
"dreaming" that this would work for a car parked in the drive overnight. In
the morning you will find your car wet either from a lot of condensation or
from the rain coming through. I am not sure which it is but it is enough to
leave my chrome wet and water drops over most of the car. The windows on the
GT6 would also fog. I am sure there is much science to it and I don't think
there is a cover made that will keep the car dry.
It will be tough this thing for overnights because it also is not compact
and will take up a large portion of the trunk.
I gave up and I now squeeze all three LBC's into my two car garage. Perhaps
I will park the GT6 in my Colman family tent. At least the mosquitos won't
bother the car.
Happy trails,
Scott Willis

>>Hey Ron,
>>I bought the Monsoon model from Cover Zone. It costs $200 ish. I expected
>>the car to stay dry. It does NOT. It keeps water from trickling in door
>>jams etc but the car is wet after a hard rain. Then the cover holds the
>>moisture on the car until you pull it off which probably promotes rust.

>>Let me know if you find something that works. Very frustrating. Many folks
