Re: The Jeep has been banished
> Actually, why not just continue to use the tarp.
It's not so much the freezing that's a problem with a tarp but the warmer
temps. Moisture is your vehicle's enemy. A tarp won't breathe enough.
Water will build up and it'll rust. Also, never store a vehicle just over
dirt. The condensation cycle over soil (or grass) is a lot worse than over
concrete. If you want to destroy your vehicle then park it over dirt and
put a tarp on it. Better to just leave it exposed than to smother it.
Or consider a cover designed for the purpose under a car port. Those
temporary structures just won't hold up in snow or high wind conditions.
Better to have a rigid top car port with open sides and a cover. That way
you keep *most* of the direct sun and moisture off the vehicle. The cover
keeps off the rest but has plenty of ability to let out the moisture.
That and a car port is a lot less ugly, neighbor-friendliness-wise.
