I voted "other" for car tent, although my daily driver is in a garage (soon to be heated).

I have kind of a gated drive-in to my backyard.. I guess that's sort of a car port?
But usually if I'm lazy I just park it outside..

We have our cars in our gated driveway because my dad used up the 2-car garage to store all his misc. shit, and won't clear it out. Hell, our benz got broken into twice within the last 2 months, and it still hasn't motivated him to move fuck all. All he has done is locked our front gate door. One day I'm gonna call for one of those massive bins and just chuck all his tools and shit out when he retires so I can finally park in garage again.

it is so much better to have a garage esp in the winter
last year a rat found its way under the hood of my moms 4runner but could not get out. we started noticing a foul smell when the heat was turned on...and guess wat it was...absolutely disgusting. one of the techs at toyota puked when we were getting the rat's corpse removed
someone also broke into my car during the night a few months back, but they did not take a single thing from the car. they just left the manuals and insurance papers all over the passenger seat.
it is also so much warmer to get into your car that has been parked in a garage as opposed to outside. warmer in the winter, cooler in the summer.

The Mustang gets garaged and only comes out on sunny days.
The Mazda sits out in the cold & wet. Oh well that's what winter beaters are all about.

I chose other.
During the late spring/summer months, my car sits either in my garage or on my driveway. As soon as winter makes a debut, i shuttle the car into a secured underground lot at my buddy's condo.
Why? BC im always working on or playing with my buddies cars, and i get tired of moving my car in and out of the garage during the winter, so its more convenient to rent out a spot at the condo.

My neighbour has a gorgeous garage. Nice and big with huge garage door. It has enough room for all kinds of tool cabinets and workbench. I think it has its own fuse panel. A dream garage to work on the car. I was going to approach the neighbour because the garage is empty and not being used. I'd rent it out. Only problem is, the neighbour is an elderly woman. Her husband apparently passed away a few years ago. Kids tell me she's always checking out my ass when I'm out in the garden. Kind of creepy. She'd probably let me use the garage for free............. LOL. Working on the car, bent over, and granny comes up and ass rapes me. Eeeeewwwwwwwww..........
Should start poll............ would you sell yourself to park your baby in the perfect heated garage?

^ what if she gives you the option to sex her up in exchange for:
1. free usage of her garage
2. a building in downtown vancouver
3. a rolex
if you got all 3 - would you do it? would you go to the level of Allen Harper?

Hey, if they allow strange buildings off alleys for nanny suites and shit in Vancouver, why would they bitch at a tent?
I know what you mean, though. I was worried about it. I figure 150 bucks, how can you go wrong? If they tell you to take it down, you sell it on craiglist or...... return it to Costco, LOL.
