Cheap car covers are not good to use as they get damaged fast and give scratches on car.

Even not protect the car as there material is not good.

If your budget is less then view here:

I purchased cover at cheap price but its material is very nice.

Yea, I'll keep an eye the scuffing. My paint is trashed anyway. I'll probably get shiny spots from the flapping. :)

Regarding moisture, it says it's a 4layer, breathable material, but it IS a cheap cover so I'll be keeping an eye on that too.
My concern is that I don't drive to work (50mi roundtrip) everyday anymore. The daily heat cycles seemed to keep everything dried out.

Bottom line, I got kicked out of the garage. My wife was complaining. Something about getting wet when getting in and out and being freezing cold with the kids, blah, blah.

be careful that the cover flapping in the wind doesnt scuff your paint
and also that it doesnt trap moisture underneath it..

Ok, so I went the cheapy route.
They had covers at Costco, the smallest size was Medium, for about $30. Item #347994.
I figured, worst case senario, I could trim it to fit. If it was too small I could cut it up and make covers for the rototiller and lawnmower.

Advertised Dimensions: 178"/452cm L, 64"/162cm W, 45"/114cm H

Here is a pic on my 2dr sedan. It's a bit loose, but doesn't touch the ground.
