RaoulDuke79 Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 My strategy is parking in the garage. And it works damn well because I have a midsize truck. I want a full size truck, but that means parking outside because it won't fir in theb garage, and I'm really not liking the idea of traipsing through snow and brushing things off at 6 am. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually park in my garage, too. And, don't understand why so many people don't - for just what you're saying................I was thinking of this as a Christmas present for those idiots!

ExiledInIllinois Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 How about just start the vehicle for 15 minutes. What the hell you gonna do with that nasty thing, mess? Throw it in back all wet? LMAO... I gotta a hard enough time telling the wife and kidlets to brush off the brush and clap their boots before getting in. Call me OCD, but clapping your feet saves a whole bunch of nasty mess on the floor mats. Pass. Do it the trad way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I gotta small, extremely crowded 2-car garage. I (as in my son or myself only) will park daughter's and wife's car in there... They will just drive them out. They don't bring them in... /smh, I am so whipped. But don't want this: I have to remind myself about the old saying w/my personal twist added: "Every Lockman knows his chamber." CC: @Gugny "Get woke, go broke." I refuse to go broke. I am guilty of this VERY un-WAF post above. I throw myself at the mercy of the court!

Sure, pollute away, why don’t you give it 30-45 minutes? Coupled with your personal CO2 emissions you have the carbon footprint of a small nation. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But for some reason there's only ever room for my wife's car. We're currently finishing our basement so for the past few weeks it's been a 0 car garage. Kind of funny hearing her complain about having to wait to defrost the windows on a cold morning. Yeah, no sh!t woman, been doing that for years. Lol. WRT the frost guard, I clear the hood and roof too so that wouldn't help me much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch out for the LED traffic lights that ice up because they don't give off heat to keep them unfrosted and seen... You might run a red light... 1 hour ago, SinceThe70s said: I allegedly have a two car garage. But for some reason there's only ever room for my wife's car.

Tell her to be thankful that we have computers and electronic fuel injection. Turn the key and go. What in dear Lord would these modern woman do starting and operating vehicles like our mothers did? /smh. It's nice to be thankful for technological advances...

BillnutinHouston Posted November 20, 2019 Share Posted November 20, 2019 (edited) I live in an older house with a small one car garage, so most of my cars are parked outside. I own 4-5 of these, and they work as shown. No-brainer solution for me. Using Pittsburgh winters (where I now live) as a gauge, you can get 2-3 winters from them before the side straps wear out. My family just leaves them outside when they pull away for the day. Edited November 20, 2019 by BillnutinHouston Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
