Mel, I agree with those who recommend not using a cover. I once covered for the winter my toy car, a '63 Impala convertible and sure regretted it when I uncovered it in the spring. The paint was rubbed off all the knife edges on the fenders. Never again. When we had a stick home we stored our Montana outside for the winter. We just winterized, cracked a vent (with maxxair cover as noted above), plugged it in to shore power and never had a problem. If you don't plug it in then I recommend removing the battery or charging it once per month. Plugging it in kept the battery charged. I've also heard the slight hum from the converter keeps the mice away. I don't know if that's accurate but we never had the critters inside that I know of.
