I used a cover for a few months and they are a PITA unless the car is very clean and tucked away for a long winter's nap

Suggestion · Original poster
I just want to avoid having to clean off ice/snow from the car in the morning and thought this would help but Ivangene helped me realize that a cover could potentially be more problematic than help.

Coverage and how to read this overview
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

13 coats of good wax - covers put on dirty cars scratch paint, if its outside I assume you are driving it, so protect it, let it get dirty and wash when you can.

I am thinking you're right.
I drive home from work, I find out from the weather forecast we're going to get a crap load of snow, I put the cover on a slightly dirty car, which dirties the inside of the cover, and then it snows, and then melts, and then freezes, and then I remove the cover...ugh.
I am SOOO glad I checked in with you guys - I was just about to spend $295 on a cover !!!
I don't think you read my posts here.
It is a daily driver for me.

Depending on if your neighbors can tolerate the scenery and/or your city codes are ok, maybe get about $50 in 2x4 studs and some tarp and build a makeshift garage?
What he said... Build that shed, use duct tape, multiple color tarps and as always the neighbors will appreciate the straight pipes you put on for winter.
yea, thats what I want, my beautiful p-car under a duck tape, tarp and 2x4 shanty shack that rips apart in the wind or becomes a sail and slams the side of the car as it heads on down the street
h&ll Yea Dawg !
