What's a good car cover to buy?

Not looking to drop 200 on a cover just want something that won't scratch my baby's paint while parked in the garage. Just need something to keep the dust off it.
Thanks,
Matt

That's just what I was looking for to keep the dust/pollen off while also protecting it from my cats... This cover made by Budge is a one size fits many cover, does the job, and is sold by a bunch of different vendors. Just pulled this one off my google search.

I have this one and like it, cheap and does the job. If I needed outside protection, I would spend 3x more for something thicker. This one also rolls up nicely, so when ii have my son help me take it off or put it on it only takes about 30 seconds.

Found this pic from my floor jack album that shows the cover.

I bought the Indoor Soft Stretch cover from that place....very soft and also very easy to put on and take off....great at keeping dust off car, but not for outdoot use. The first one they sent was way too big, so they sent me a second one..I see since then they have changed to recommended size from 4 to 3.

Matt: i tried few.. but all makes scratches... dont know how dust gets in and then horror starts. better off just blow the dust with leaf blower as many does here. just my opinion. i got walmart rainx, Boss 302 ford one from criaglist and last Audi expensive indoor cover...nothing works against dust scratches but of course birds/cats/other elements it works fine.

I want to register my car in New Hampshire just so I can have that license plate with "Live Free or Die". Love it.
