I have a 2551 and use the Goldline cover as well.  I like it.  I use fun noodles in areas where a hole could develop.  I tape noodles down with blue painters tape.  I also place a yoga ball on the roof near the ladder to better facilitate water runoff, otherwise water pools in back due to the railing.

2 Lucky explained how to fold it. His note is shown below.  Very helpful!

2 LUCKY:
Follow their instructions for installation after the first time, which you will need to do to determine front and outside. Hopefully they are now using the method I describe below to pack the cover, which I have shared with them when I got my latest cover.

To remove the cover, unzip the back panel, fold in up over the top. Climb on top and pull the sides up and as neatly as possible fold the sides to the center to about 3 ft wide. Climb down and go to the front and start tightly rolling the folded cover in on itself on top of the hood, which should be clean because that is the way you had it before you put the cover on, I hope.

Now the next time you want to put the cover on, just hoist it to the roof, ( I use a step ladder in addition to the RV ladder) get on top of the RV and unroll the cover to the front over the AC and vents. Start flopping the sides down as you work your way back to the ladder, being careful not to step on accessories up there, but most of all careful not to challenge gravity. You will lose.  This works for any RV or trailer, but is really easy with the Goldline since the back flap unzips in both corners to nearly the top. Be glad you have PC because you can actually walk on the roof.

Thank you SARZ272000!  :)(:

The strap over the front hood I see it in your photo and Jim's, does it come with the cover or something you added?

Good luck on that Frank. Hopefully you'll be needing that cover soon!
Last year I used bubble wrap on the sharp corners, mostly awning corners, but this year I used pool noodles to round them out.
Also added a yoga ball on the roof because of puddling inside the U shaped railing.
Though I think I need to let some air out as the cover isn't reaching as far down as I would like and it is pretty tall looking.
Looks like a tent on the roof  :lol
The ball I bought was 45-85cm but I think I could have gone smaller.

Strap was added to keep front down on windy days.
