ABSTRACT:
A car cover having tethers passing through holes formed in the cover. Each tether has an anchor in the form of a ball attached thereto. The anchor is larger than the interior diameter of the holes, so that the tether is prevented from being pulled through the hole. The cover is retained on the vehicle by placing at least one anchor inside the vehicle, and closing a door or window over the tether. In alternative embodiments, the vehicle cover has one or more tethers. The tethers may be linear, or may form a closed loop. A tether may pass through just one hole, or more than one hole. The cover is preferably dimensioned and configured to cover only the cab portion of a motor vehicle, that is, that portion of the vehicle having any combination of front, rear, and side windows. The holes are formed in a central panel overlying the vehicle roof, and front, rear, and side panels cover vertical surfaces, attaching to the vehicle body by magnets embedded in the respective panels. The material is preferably a multistratum composite having one reflective side and one water impermeable side. It is therefore highly practical to provide a reversible cover which selectively protects against sun and frozen water, which is compact, light, and easily installed and removed, and which requires no separate or complicated security apparatus.
