The Bonneville is going to be stored outside this year unfortunately, and I would like to protect it as best as possible. I need to know who makes the best car covers that will take snow, ice, wind, and other abuse. Remember temps frequently drop below -45 F here in the winter..so she needs to be tough!

If that was only the case. as it is, its only 40F outside right now...i think winter is just about here...
Damn.
I have a cheapie Simonize indoor/outdoor car cover on the Alero right now as it sits on the RV storage gravel pad in our back yard, been like that since July..however, it breathes as its not coverd by ice..
seems to be working well on it
