What do you guys recommend? It will be garage kept, but want to keep dust and debris off of her as I have a different car for my daily driver. Does MOPAR have a factory cover? Heard of an aftermarket one that is custom fit? Any and all recommendations appreciated!

A stretchy tight one like that kept in a garage looks great. Just a heads up for those considering using a cover outside.. I had a loose cover on my motorcycle that was exposed to wind. Dust would get under the cover, and the wind would cause the cover plus dust to create scratches in the paint. Lesson learned.

Don't use car covers outside even if manufacturer says so leaves marks. Lesson learned here

Contact Steve White Dodge-Jeep in Hichory, NC., they have them.
If you contact Steve White (I've used them and like them a lot) use the code 'cha1' when you order online. Get's you 5% discount.

I like the Coverking satin stretch for indoor use only however they don't have the Hellcat Challenger one available yet. I will get one asap they are available and post up a picture.
I think they had the 2015 SRT392 listed (I think). That has to work just fine. I can't imagine the cover is 'that' fitted.

I garage my car but I don't cover it. My logic is that there is dust on the car from when I was out. Some of this over time gets transferred to the cover. I personally think you do more damage to the paint putting the cover on and off... I'm talking micro marring (fine scratches and stuff).

I'd rather let the car get dusty, wash it quick, use it and then clean it well before I put it away.

Just my .02.... There are a few very nicely fitted covers that folks on this site have used.

We long term store our cars in a heated garage, so over summer ( driving season) no cover but once they get put away we like to cover them, there is dust in my garage, I move my 1 ton pick up trucks in the front half of the garage ( cars are in the back 1/2) but keeps them more protected.

I think if I pulled the cover on and off all the time in the summer I would wear off the paint.

they don't have one online yet for the SRT cars only the Base but I got a hold of my contact there and they said they can get me a cover for the Hellcat. I did not get a price yet but being a past customer they offered a 10% off.

I can agree to this. I always clean the car by either washing it, or detailing it before I put the cover on. I can go many days without driving the car after I clean it
