No doubt there are some that do use covers. It needs to be snug but not so tight it can rub (then wear out) any part of the rig. If it's going to be in severe weather the cover itself can be a problem if it is not installed correctly and not having one myself I cannot comment any more than that.
Be prepared to replace these over time too. Others who have these say they replace theirs every 3 to five years from wear caused by sun, too much dirt, animal or nature damage, rain, snow, etc. After all, they are fabric and this material will not as strong or durable as the skin of the Monty. I understand the materials are getting better but I'm sure the price becomes higher.
It might be better if you have the room, to install a "portable garage" tall enough to eliminate climbing all over your rig. But then this introduces how to fasten it so it doesn't become airborne and cause greater problems to the rig or anything else.
Good luck with whatever you decide.
