Yeah.  I've had bad luck with covers.  I *once* used a blue tarp to cover 
my tractor, and heavily tied it down to get it through hurricane Isabelle. 
 When I un-tarped it the next morning, it was all drippy underneath.

I also *had* a genuine GE ET tractor cover, and was only able to use it 
one season until mice made it swiss cheese.
