We offer four quality levels of van covers that are correctly sized for
a Vanagon or a Poptop Vanagon (unlike many others that are actually
generic van covers and "sort of" fit). However, you're not going to get
much below $150-$200 for something that will handle this kind of severe
weather. While we do have $99 ones, we're upfront about the fact that
they're very light duty and really intended for non-severe weather or
dust protection of a van that's stored in a garage or carport. The same
goes with the other $100-range ones out there.

You can find a list of our covers, and an explanation of the different
materials used, at
