Abstract: The vehicle cover includes a frame assembly having both vertical and lateral adjustment for supporting a tarp roll laterally thereon. The frame assembly is temporarily installed atop the vehicle, with forward and rearward anchors being installed laterally beneath the respective forward and rearward ends of the vehicle. A tarp or cover is unrolled from the tarp roll atop the frame assembly, and attached to the forward and rearward anchors to form a tent-like configuration having relatively steep forward and rearward slopes and near vertical sides. This configuration greatly improves the shedding of snow, ice, and leaves and other debris that would otherwise collect atop a cover resting directly atop the relatively flat surfaces of the vehicle. The entire frame and cover assembly remain clear of the underlying surface and contact only the vehicle, and are thus not considered permanent structures that might be subject to zoning or other local regulations.
