I have an expensive car cover that got snagged resulting in a 8 inch tear. I used duct tape but it only worked for a while. Is there a better fix? Thanks for your time, Rich

You can try a tent patch kit or take to a local dry cleaner that offers alteration services, they can patch and stitch it up for you.
Can you sew up the tear?
Thanks so much for your replies. Both options are worthy of trying. I think I'll try to sew it first and if that doesn't work I'll go to plan B. Both of you take care and be safe, Rich
There are patching supplies to consider.
I found a thick heavy duty canvas cloth with a peel off backing thats quite durable at a thrift store.

I suggest look around at the link Amazon links looking at reliable product reviews and high ratings.
I personally can be influenced by the Amazon customer reviews and QA features— that often educate and influence my buying decisions in comparing the quality and effectiveness of products to chose the best product for my need and budget.
