+1 SH, little high dollar for the issue. Bit more than a step ladder and cleaning stuff.

The PahaQue version is manual, like the one I made. I would prefer an automatic, roll-out slide cover, but that isn't in the budget right now.

My bad, the 179 cover is different and 40 dollars more.

Pahaque sells them, I think around 99 bucks. They are one size fits all for Pod, I had to trim the keder rail adapter to get it to fit to my liking.

Anyone have recommendations for a good slide topper?

I think I may ponder adding the slide topper and be done with it. Thanks for the suggestions. Yet another item not mentioned by the FR manual or the dealer tech.

Snow and ice adds a new dimension. I like the Swiffer post, but that doesn't fix weather stuff. I retracted my slide in rain once, wiped up water, it will come in with it.

We learned our lesson after an inch or so of snow. We didn't even think about snow until I closed the slide out and oh what a mess.

A Swiffer (but not the wet jet) or equivalent works well for cleaning things off the top of the slide-out as well.The benefit is that you can toss the dirty cleaning pad when you are done.
