We have Maxx Air roof vent covers so always left roof vents only open. That way you do not have to worry about any water coming in. Air will circulate when your roof vents are open. We keep windows closed (in Ohio and never had any mildew or mold/smell issues).

I recently purchased a 30' travel trailer. I wanted a cover for it, but saw the prices were kinda hefty for the good ones. Lucky me, I looked on our Facebook Marketplace, and boom!!! An ADCO cover for $75! A guy bought a 40' motor home, and didn't need it. Looks brand new!

Awesome great find for you! We're very happy that the investment is somewhat protected now.

Btw we live in central Florida, so it sees a lot of sun and heat.
You will definitely benefit by keeping it under a cover. Camping World puts the ADCO cover (which we use) on sale quite often. We paid around 200 bucks for nice cover for our 28ft Creekside.
We live in the PNW so rain is a problem. The only hassle would be having to take it on/off once a month.
We used a cover on our 2012 Creekside and the trailer still looked new when we traded it in.

Covering your RV

We bought a used HiLO 12 yrs. ago. I priced a cover and it would have cost $900.00 We didn't have the $. Three years ago a forum member was selling a cover for $300.00.They had only used it twice. It was in EC. Best $ I ever spent. Cheaper than fixing water damage and rotten roof. We love our sunbrella cover. It is large enough to go over our back bumper and the propane tanks. I use buble wrap and blue painters tape to protect the awning brackets and any other sharp objects.
