Is there a cover for the Gladiator that covers just the hood and the cab?

Of course I am aware of the full covers for the Gladiator and I see that there are covers for just the cab, but I am looking for a cover that will cover the hood and the cab - is there such a thing? Thanks.

Because I have to leave mine outside with lots of trees around that cause a lot of debris and I want to keep the hood/windshield clean without going through the hassle of putting on a full cover.

You know what? I like this thread! I've often thought how nice it would be to have just the front covered as well! I would like a "White cover" for snow and summer alike. Keeping the sun off everything would be GREAT! One bungee under the cab to secure a good fitting cover is all it should take. Monitoring this thread for sure! Safe travels and a happy new year to you all!

A Google search turned up nothing so I was hoping someone knew of product matching my needs.

You’re probably going to need to R&D then manufacture it yourself. I don’t see this as something that is wanted.

Maybe see if there are any such things in existence for other trucks. Or get a JL cover, and take it to a canvas shop to shrink it down a little…

Off topic a little, but I think it’s funny that my Jeep trail cover for the truck, fits my 2005 TJ almost perfectly…

Hmmm….I don’t see the “hassle” being much different with a full size as opposed to what you are looking for. Do you have a tonneau?
A full size would be a hassle ‘without’ a tonneau as I would imagine it would hold water like a pool.
I have seen them for just the windshield and cab area when the tops off but not with a piece for the hood.
Patent it, build it, make your millions and retire. Lol.
Oops I just noticed you are retired, lucky bugger.

Oh well, just not worth the hassle.

Harbor Freight has exactly what you seek. They are usually in the back left corner near the bungees and ratchet straps.?
Come in blue, green, silver, and camouflage.

If they have it, they are doing a great job of hiding it!

I believe it was a facetious suggestion. What you're looking for is commonly known as a tarp. ;)

Sorry, I was being 80% serious 20% smart ass. Here’s where I was going: https://www.harborfreight.com/tarps
They may work if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for.
A fast google search of Truck cab debris cover gave a handful of results I THINK are what your after.

here is one example
https://www.americantrucks.com/f150-universal-easyfit-truck-cover-gray-1320.html?utm_content=AT Exterior - Car Cover|Store Brand&T5_Var4=T544815

And if none if them are it you could always buy a large tarp and cut it to the shape in the pic, which id imagine would do the trick.

Of course that one is for the F-150 and when you choose another truck (Gladiator) they show nothing for sale along those lines. I wanted something that fit like the full cover but just the front of the car. I'm too much of a perfectionist, and I want fit and looks.
