Proper fitting 5th gen cover

[el corvino]

Can anyone recommend a company that sells a nice, proper fitting vehicle cover for a 5th gen Elco? I'm going crazy reading about how many layers... this that and the other. I'm more worried about proper fitment so water doesn't pool in the bed area and such.

Thanks!

The best ones I purchased were from Costco, but they tended to be generic sedan-sped covers. I think the brand was Covercraft. These were not the premium ones, but around 40 bucks - held up for over two years in the New Mexico sun and wind.
I'd make some bows for the bed to hold up the cover. Make them out of wood or something that won't scratch the paint.

I'm worried about the South Florida mini hurricane winds every other day ripping it off in the case that it's not proper fitting...

I had gotten mine from costco too when I use to store the malibu outside. I had it or a couple of years and it was a solid piece through the 4 seasons.

What I liked about the Costco cover was that it had two straps with click buckles, one under each bumper, rather than a single belly band. I have never seen this cover lift off and blow back across the hood or trunk like I did with the crappy Budge brand you get at the parts store or Walmart.
