I purchased one from a local CarQuest last year. It was ok and cheap.

It was fine until I got ready to put it in the closet during the spring and my wife thought it was a good idea to put it in the washing machine first.. sigh...

So, I'll be looking for another one here soon.

Since you live in the SW like I do be aware of the spring winds. My car cover would aways come off on a windy day. Get one that has pockets for the side mirrors and has some elastic on the bottom to keep the wind from taking it away. Your cover will do you no good if it's on the other side of the parking lot. (I know from experience)

Check http://www.autoseattle.com/covercraftcustom.htm

Certainly not cheap, but Covercraft is about as good as it gets, and they already have the third gen in their database. We fall into the Meduim category, by the way. They've got a cable lock accessory to help prevent theft and blow-aways.

I got an OEM from the local dealer and paid about $125, I think.
I wanted to be sure that the fit was correct and the fabric breathed....Works great!
