Truck Cover for Winter?

I'm probably going to store my Lightning this winter and its actually my first winter of ownership. Unfortunately I have no garage so it will have to stay outsite. Can anyone recommend a good quality cover to protect against the weather? I live in southern NY, so I know that it will be pretty bad. Also, is there any product I should put in the gas tank since it will be sitting? Or should I just start it up every now and then? Thanks for any help.

There are tons of different car covers...look for one that has eyelets to run a cable lock.

Make sure you don't park the truck on bare ground...moisture IS the enemy.

Fill the gas tank...or drain it...check antifreeze levels.

You should put in a Fuel Stabilizer and follow the directions. I put it in my motorcycles, convertible and Lightning, as I know they will not be getting much time on the road in winter. It sucks that you can't keep it locked up in a nice warm dry garage. MAT2CH..........
