Does anybody have any thoughts on leaving the front protection towing cover on when our van is on the drive.

Does it say why? I think it will keep any damp against the van and prevent it drying out but the other half thinks it's a good idea to leave it on.

Thank you, I just need to convince the other half that it is different to the winter cover, I'm also concerned about the pull on the awning rail for a prolonged period of time.
