Alvin Posted September 15, 2010 Share Posted September 15, 2010 Hi, we're looking for a cover for our 22-foot Toyota Odyssey (89). We came up with this one... http://www.safeguardcovers.com/ProductDetails.asp?ProductCode=CV-RVC-32024-GE ...which looks like it should work, but it's out of stock. Anyone have experience buying these and have any links or recommendations? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maineah Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Most class "C" are much taller then our MH and wider it will cover it and then some don't expect a nice fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86rader Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 Triple layer polypropylene top panel beads water on contact provides maximum resistance to rainfall and snow this was from the description. it basically means almost waterproof. i have used tarps in the past and they are the same....almost waterproof. It is important that the cover not have puddles forming on it, which is rather tricky. Puddles WILL leak through. For an extra few hundred, you can find a tent garage type structure which will keep your odyssey nice and dry. I plan on doing this very soon or maybe rig one up myself.

Maineah Posted October 2, 2010 Share Posted October 2, 2010 When I stored mine outside I made two "saw horses" only about 18" tall put them on the roof then covered it, made a semi pitched roof. It also allowed me to open the rear vent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
86rader Posted October 3, 2010 Share Posted October 3, 2010 excellent idea, maineah. i was thinking of trying something along those lines. maybe even stack up a bunch of outside furniture cushions i got sitting around the basement. sure would rather have your barn, though. damn, that thing is nice.

Alvin Posted October 5, 2010 Author Share Posted October 5, 2010 Love the saw-horse idea. I think you're absolutely right to do this to keep the water from pooling. I'll be implementing some version of this over the winter... side note: I'm worried about damaging the roof with the contact with the saw-horses, so I'm going to be adding some footpads of some kind. Don't want holes to patch in the spring. It also occurs to me that maybe I could also park the vehicle with a set of low car ramps (5 or 6 inches tall) on the front to drain any water which gets under the saw-horse-propped-up tarp off the back? I suppose as long as I don't run the fridge it might be okay... but I'm not sure. Anyone know if parking like this could damage the fridge?
