How do you cover your Bronco when the hard top is removed?

[mtt1721]

I love driving with the hard top removed, but I don’t like leaving it sit without a top… I have a fancy mesh JTop that blocks out the sun nicely, but that doesn’t stop the rain or midnight creatures. So I either have to park it in the garage or put on a full cover.

Does anyone know of a better option?

I use a www.Broncobikini.com on mine. I live in the PNW where it rains quite a bit but I still roll several months of the year with my hard top off and in storage. The bikini is canvas and will keep most rain out when driving. If I need to park for an extended period of time in the rain then I park either at an upward or downward angle so the rain can roll off. Or you can try and mall crawl park as well.

I have a garage I park in overnight and I have a Rain Gear Trail cover that I put on at night when I go on overnight camping trips.

The rain gear trail cover looks like exactly what I need! Never seen that before, thanks!

The garage is always the best option. There is nothing harder on a vehicle than having it sit outside night after night after night. I have a 30-year-old F250 that still looks like brand new and it’s never even had a wax job and that was because it’s spent every day of its life in a garage.

I vote for garage as well. Why wouldn't you park in the garage if you have a garage? Always amazes me how many people park their $60K cars outside to rot in the weather because they have $2,000 worth of junk in their garage that they never use.

But if you have to park outside, like I did with my lifted JKUX because it wouldn't fit in my single car condo garage back in the day, then the trail cover is a great way to go if you're removing the top and doors. I bought a soft top for my Bronco for taking the top off so I have something if it starts to rain.

The only downside to it is that it is thick and bulky.. There is another option called Broncover, that is twice the price, that packs down smaller. For half the price, I went with the Rain Gear Cover.

Here is mine on my 2dr

Is it rain "proof"?

I ask because while I'd probably buy the Broncover, all else being equal ... I have these Ford Pass points that I need to use.

No, it’s barely water resistant from many reviews I’ve seen on here.

Ended up pulling the trigger on the Broncover, the price is high, but I like that it is lighter. The company is also offered a small Memorial Day discount.

No one has linked an Amazon knockoff yet, so here is the one I use, just for overnight. I don't have a garage, and I'm not paying $400 for a tarp.

I went with the Broncover although I haven't actually used it yet. Great quality item from the looks of it.

I have one, it's definitely waterproof

If I'm spending the money on the Ford cover - I'm more likely to go with Rain Gear or Broncover. That being said, I'm trying to justify in my own head the want vs need aspect. I plan to run as much of the spring summer as I can with no roof/doors - however I am used to riding a motorcycle so I tend to look at the weather quite a bit and if there's rain in the forecast - probably gonna avoid taking a roofless/doorless vehicle...thus the want vs need - do I need to spend $400 on a cover that I want vs will I get what I need out of a cheaper cover for the 1-3 times of emergency use it will serve.

The Ford cockpit cover is? Because everyone else on here has said that it isn't at all and basically only protects against morning dew since it's only a single layer of Polyester.
