I have the Noah cover from California Custom Covers. I have used this brand cover on several cars and pick ups over the years with good results. They are not 100% water proof, but keep most of the moisture away and especially dirt and dust and bird droppings. It fits really well, even has mirror pockets. Here in the Florida heat and humidity, I get about one and a half to two years out of a cover before it starts to tear and come apart.

I originally purchased the dealer accessory cover and I was not too impressed with it. It fit rather tightly, and scratched the black plastic panels at the rear. It was waterproof but it started to tear and deteriorate within a year. I have purchased some of the Noah car covers. They work reasonably well but are not perfect. The biggest issue I have with the Noah covers is that the neighborhood cats and probably my own cat like to use the cover as a scratching post and it doesn't take long for them to claw through the cover. If you have this issue, a cover that has a smooth slick finish on the outside would be best.
