Abstract

Abstract A hat shaped cover for a steering wheel. The hat has a brim that extends from a crown. The crown has an inner compartment which allows the user to store and carry items therein. The hat shaped wheel cover also has a pair of straps that allow the user to carry the cover like a backpack. The straps are adjustable and adapted to be placed around the steering wheel so that the crown can cover the wheel to protect the same from sunlight and heat. The hat shaped cover has a removable lid that allows the end user to insert an inner-tube into the inner crown compartment and wear the cover as a hat.
