tealracing16: I liked my canvas SnoCap. It was unbelievable light on my 10' trailer and pulled well because it was very aerodynamic. I sold it this fall because I got a good deal on a 3 place Floe Protektor. If you want to put gear in the trailer, I would recommend lining the inside walls of the trailer with 1/4" plywood about 2' up from the floor. This would prevent the gear from pushing on the canvas or rubbing on it as you're bouncing down the road. I stored my trailer inside, so the canvas didn't fade, but I think even if you kept it outside it might turn gray but would hold up. Just don't park it under trees where a branch could go through it.
