A Freightliner car cover will be the “ultimate shield” you should think of first when you’re serious about protecting your truck, especially as weather conditions and parking habits across the U.S. vary from state to state and route to route. Unlike passenger cars, Freightliner tractors work outdoors for long hours, run through multiple climate zones, park in windy yards, dusty industrial sites, coastal ports with sea mist, high plains with ice and snow, and desert heat. Because of that harsh mission, many drivers and fleet owners both fear a bulky, hard-to-handle car cover and worry that the truck ages quickly when it sits in long rain, harsh sun, or snow and when day-night temperature swings make the cab alternately hot at noon and bitterly cold at dawn.
