Default Any car storage/cover people?

Well, i decided that i want to take my crx off the wintery roads this year, instead of letting the elements eat it alive in my drive way.

has anyone ever stored their car in a private storage garage or anyone know a really nice car cover i could buy?

i got a car to drive once the snow hits, so taking it off the road won;t matter

I was thinking the same thing, but all of the commercial places around here want $200 for a garage spot :down:

Will it fit in one of those little storage places for boxes and stuff? I wasn't sure if you were already talking about one of those or a car storage place.

when i was contemplating places to keep the GSR, a self-storage place was near the top of my list. i was going to try my parents "garage" but my dad thought at the time the snowblower had priority

ya, my girlfriend has to options...

one a barn. its covered, but very very dusty/dirty, and still in the cold and all that

two: her HUGE garage, but its FULL of shit now. it would take me forever to clean it out for her parents, plus her dogs would be pissing all over it

I'd get a car cover, one of the cloth ones, about $50 from Costco, and put it in her garage with boxes or something all around the wheels and stuff so the dogs can't get near.
