    OEM car cover ??

    I may have to get ambitious and actually unroll the whole thing to see what I've got. I won't be surprised if it's maybe a boat cover. Car was always garaged, never driven in the rain, etc and the cover appears to have had very little if any use. Thnaks for the replies everyone. I was hoping...
